Moving Multiple Timelines, Tasks and Jobs of an Element

You use this action, for example, when you have completed the planning for an element. Then you have to move all or some of the timelines, tasks or jobs by the same time period without changing the time intervals between them.

In the following, we will only talk about tasks. Note that this includes jobs.

If you want to move timelines, tasks and jobs of several elements, see the section Groups.

    • or

    • > Bulk selection > Select subsequent timelines/tasks: You select - starting from the selected element - subsequent elements.

  5. In the dialog box that opens, specify whether you want to move timelines and/or tasks by activating the checkboxes.
