Multiple Task Creation

userid128223 — Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

Need some help in defining tasks.

How to Configure Scenerio1:

TaskA: needs to run everyday in morning @ 2AM.

TaskB: needs to run at 10AM but also depenedent on TaskA to be successful.

How to Configure Scenerio2:

TaskA: needs to run everyday in morning @ 2AM.

TaskB: needs to run at 10AM but also depenedent on TaskA (nice to be succesful not must) I think it needs to decide within 5 minutes if it should wait or proceed.

Then define multiple triggers (and dependencies if needed) for your documents in the triggers tab.

You cannot however change the ordering of tasks in the Tasks Overview. The QMC will decide on how to display tasks with multiple triggers in a task tree. Nothing you can do about that.

Another Question:

TaskC: needs to run: when

TaskA: must complete (if it doesn't then don't run TaskC)

TaskB: nice to complete (if it completes within specific time let say 10 minutes) if not as long as Task A is done execute Task C.

I guess you simply chain task C to task A. The outcome of task B is irrelevant.
