The Task Assignment table is where you start to create the periodical table for inspection, testing and maintenance (ITM) tasks. This table provides the backbone for the scheduler to assign the proper task intervals by linking the Equipment Type with the Task Description and finally to the Question Sets if applicable.
Depending on the required Assignments you may be able to setup the Assignments at the Category level, the Sub Category level or the Equipment Description level.
(Example: all Extinguishers require a Monthly inspection and are associated to the same Question Set. Instead of setting up each Equipment Type on a Monthly Task with a Monthly Extinguisher Question Set, setup one assignment for the Category Extinguisher, Task Monthly and the Monthly Extinguisher Question Set. The result is one assignment for maybe a dozen types of Extinguishers.)
