Task Requirements (Block) - Add Or Remove

Updated by Steven Garand

Tasks can have requirements (Block) that block marking the task completed until satisfied.
Click on Block... to add or remove requirements.
Tasks with requirements (Block) are easily identified by the expand detail button (triangle) to the left of the row. If the row does not have icon, the task does not have requirements defined.
If setting requirements for fields on a form, only set one or a small number of fields, not all the fields. This feature is meant as a reminder to specify key pieces of information for the task and not intended as means of form validation.
If a checkbox value on a form is used as block and the checkbox was never checked on by the user, the task will be blocked. If the checkbox is checked on, the block is removed. If the checkbox is checked off after being saved as checked on, the block will no longer work. The reason is an unchecked checkbox saves an off value into the database and the block looks for any value to allow the completion of the task. The only time there is no value is before any check is saved.
