Configuration Tags

Configuration Tags

A configuration tag is an object that controls the inclusion of tasks in subject areas. When a task is tagged, it is not eligible to be included in the collection of tasks for any subject area, unless the tag is part of the subject area definition "Include Task" property.

A configuration tag can function in one of the following ways:

• Remove tasks from all subject areas

If you assign a task to a configuration tag, the task will not be eligible to participate in any subject area.

• Reassign autogenerated tasks to a specific subject area

An autogenerated task is a task that the DAC automatically assigns to a subject area when the subject area is assembled.

For autogenerated tasks that were removed from participating in a subject area, you can set up the configuration tag to reassign a task to participate in specific subject areas. You do this by associating the configuration tag with the desired subject area. This method only applies to tasks that are autogenerated tasks of a subject area.

• Add non-autogenerated tasks to a subject area

You can set up a configuration tag to add non-autogenerated tasks to a subject area. The non-autogenerated tasks will participate in the subject area along with the subject area's autogenerated tasks. .

• Assign only configuration tag tasks to a subject area (excludes the subject area's autogenerated tasks)

You can also set up a configuration tag so that only tasks that were assigned to the configuration tag participate in a specific subject area. In this case, the subject area's autogenerated tasks do not participate.
