    Archived task start date.
    • QuickPlan supports simultaneous archiving of start, finish, and duration for all tasks.

  • Work
    Input manually, or calculated by the task duration and assigned resources ( = "Workdays" * "Daily Working Hours" * "Daily Assigned Resource"). Task work is not the same as task duration. For example, the work of a one-day task may be just one hour.
