Creating a task

You can create a task in the task list. Alternatively, you can select devices in the Managed devices list, and then create a new task assigned to the selected devices.

2. Click Add.

   The New task wizard starts. Follow its instructions.

3. If you want to modify the default task settings, enable the Open task details when creation is complete option on the Finish task creation page. If you do not enable this option, the task is created with the default settings. You can modify the default settings later, at any time.
4. Click the Finish button.

The task is created and displayed in the list of tasks.

   The New task wizard starts.

   On the first step of the wizard, you can remove the devices selected to include in the task scope. Follow the wizard instructions.
