In the Gantt view, you can modify work records in the applications
that created the records. You can change the status of a work record,
initiate a workflow, and perform other actions within the Gantt view,
or navigate to relevant applications.
When scheduling and assigning work, you might need to update
the work records that contain the planned work. You can navigate to
the work application to modify the record, but you can update only
one record at a time. Also, navigating back and forth between applications
takes time. Use the right-click menu in the Gantt view to modify the
work records in the Gantt View tab. You can
also perform certain work actions on multiple records at one time.
