Convert Task Keys

Use the Task Key Conversion utility to change a task number or to close out (consolidate) task number data into a single task number.

You can consolidate two existing task numbers. Alternatively, you can set up a new task number in which to close out task numbers that are no longer in use.

When you consolidate task numbers, Vision:
  • Consolidates budgets and data in the project financials table.

  • Deletes the billing terms and invoice data (if this is the last task for a project).
  • Deletes the billing terms and invoice data when you convert a phase to a task on another project.

Prerequisite: Back up your Vision database.

To change task numbers, complete the following steps:

  1. From the Vision Navigation menu, click Utilities > Key Conversions > Tasks.
  2. Complete the fields on the Key Convert Tasks form.
  3. Select one of the following actions:
    Option Description

    To schedule the conversion to run on a regular basis via the process server Click Schedule and complete the Schedule dialog box.
