Create Placeholder Tasks

If you want to create one or more tasks quickly, without specifying individual details, this is the best choice. From the dropdown menu, select whether you want 1, 5, 10 or 20 placeholder tasks created.

Click  Save and Add Tasks (or Add Tasks if adding to an existing project) when you are finished. The specified number of placeholder tasks will be created, numbered sequentially and spaced out by one day to keep them in order once you edit them. Once the placeholder tasks have been created, you can edit the name of a placeholder task from the Task List by clicking the 3 vertical dots to the left of the task name and choosing the Rename Task option (or quickly double clicking the existing name), and entering the new name.

All other fields (Responsible, Dates, etc) for the task can be edited by clicking on them directly from the Task List view.
