Fields and Buttons

Fields and Buttons on the Project Task Board
Field or Button Description Default  
Manage Resources Opens the Manage Resources window to manage the resources assigned to a project task. Not applicable  
Search Searches for project tasks based on the task name. When you start typing characters from anywhere in the name, PSA searches the tasks loaded into the Project Task Board and narrows down the search results as you type. Not applicable  
Record Details

Shows details of the selected project task on the Task tab of the Record Details panel. An administrator controls the fields that are displayed on the Task tab. For more information, see Project Task Board Lightning Component Properties.

Details of an assigned resource are displayed on the Resources tab of the Record Details panel. If there are multiple resources assigned to a task, you can delete the currently selected resource from the Search Contacts field on the Resources tab, click the Search Contacts field, and select another resource from the list to view their details.

The default date range displayed in the Resource Schedule section of the Resources tab of the Record Details panel depends on whether you are viewing the Project Task Board from a workspace, from a project record, or from an Experience Cloud site:

  • From a workspace, the date range is the current week beginning on the resource's work calendar start day.
  • From a project record or an Experience Cloud site, the date range matches the project record date range, provided both a start and an end date are present. If either the start date or end date is missing, the date range is the current week beginning on the resource's work calendar start day.

The following example shows a current week beginning on the work calendar start day.

  • Today's date: Tuesday, May 7, 2024.
  • Work calendar week start day: Sunday.
  • Current week: Sunday, May 5, 2024 to Saturday, May 11, 2024.

For more information about the sections displayed on the Resources tab of the Record Details panel, see Contact Card Lightning Component Overview.

The Record Details panel stays open until you close it. To close the panel, click Close on the panel or click Record Details again. For more information on the Record Details panel, see Viewing Record Details.

Filters

  • From an app page, such as workspace, all project tasks a user owns or is assigned to, and any other project tasks on projects the user manages, taking into account options selected from the filter panel.
