dspTrack

Use Comment Codes

Depending on how dspTrack™ is configured, a user may be required to select a comment code when a task is completed after the planned finish date.

Refer to Set Comment Requirements for Tasks for more information.

A user can also add a comment code even when not required to do so. Comment codes are available for all tasks in all plans.

Reports are included with dspTrack™ that list counts of tasks, tags, and codes by comment code: Late Reason by Plan, Late Reason by Tag and Late Reason by Code.

dspTrack™ is installed with standard comment codes:

• Configuration
• Error in Development
• Late Dependency
• Low Task Time Estimation
• Pending Business Action
• Pending Validation
• Requirements Change
• Resource/Time Constraints
• Security
• System Performance

An administrative user can add comment codes.

To use comment codes:

• Set a Comment Code for a Work List Item
• Set a Comment Code for a Plan Task
