The Task Editor

The "Task Editor" utility opens when you press the Task Manager's "Edit" button. As with other tables, the table edit tools appear as toolbar icons at the top of the editor. If you are unfamiliar with the table editing tools, refer to the Common Data Edit Toolbar help page in this manual.

To modify an existing event, selecting the event from the Task Manager's list and press the Edit button.

This example shows the Task Editor programming.

Description : Enter a meaningful descriptor that allows the user to recognize the command's function. This is not necessarily the command's actual name, and does not affect the actual command that is run.

Command: This is a combination of the Symphony Pro programming and the actual command file to execute manually or at the specified time. Since some commands can overwrite or otherwise change
