V24.3 Release – Task Start Time & End Time Improvements

Actual Task Start and End Time improvement recognizes that various operations may have different requirements and operational roles and responsibilities to capture task completion information. The improved functionality allows operations to configure task completion options to balance user experience with reporting requirements. For example, mines with control room operators can now capture actual task start and end times in the Scheduler screen by simply moving and re-sizing the task bar.

For each process, you can now choose whether to enable the Start Task functionality or Complete Task only.

Enable Start Time: it is best to enable Start Time for processes, where the majority of tasks’ start time can be entered into CiteOps in near real time.

No (Complete Tasks only): it is best to select No (Complete Tasks only) for processes, where the majority of the tasks start time will be entered after the task has been completed, with the actual End time and Actual. For processes where you are not tracking the actual Start & End Time, then No (Complete Tasks only), is the best practice.

To note, No (Complete Tasks only) is the default for all users.
