Task group |
|
Task groups are used to add structure to tasks within the task bar. A task group can contain any number of tasks, can be named separately, and has its own parameters that can be set. If the cumulative time of all tasks within a group exceeds the target time of the task group, each task has its duration scaled down to fit the target time of the group. Task groups also have an option to describe the kind of movement (pushing or pulling) of the group as a whole. The task group has an ergonomics parameter for this purpose. However, a separate group is needed for each task that requires either a push or a pull (e.g. a task group cannot be assigned both a pull and a push).

Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
Pushing / pulling type |
Selection |
no |
A selection parameter with a list of already predefined types of pulling and pushing (according to EAWS). |
Floor conditions |
Selection |
no |
A selection parameter with a list of varied predefined floor conditions. This property is used for various evaluations. |
iIn case of complex scenarios, it is useful to structure tasks by units of meaning. In doing so, the task group must always be created first. iTask groups can only be inserted on the first plane. A further sub-structuring is currently not provided. iSimulation of tasks with a defined Task end to wait for parameter can lead to time computational errors if both the tasks defined within a task group and the task group parameter Predefined target time [s] is set to a value not equal to zero. Make sure to avoid such kind of grouping. |
