Relationship Between Tasks and Features

If no features within a particular functional area task are granted for a role, then even if that task is specifically granted to the role, it will not be visible (and directly accessible) to the users in that role. At least one feature applicable to the functional area must be granted for that task to appear in the functional area for a user assigned to the role.

Note: Events, Membership, and Prospects are built as pages, not functional areas. While you cannot assign tasks to pages, pages can have actions. For more information about adding actions to pages, see the Page Designer Guide.

Additionally, when you grant certain tasks, it grants the minimum underlying features necessary for a user to actually complete the task. The rules governing this behavior are:

Task Type

Feature Granted

Go to page

Ex. Search for constituents

Page expression form for that page (if any)

Ex. Constituent Page Expression Data View Form

Show Form

Ex. Add an Individual

That form + post action Go to page expression

Ex. Individual Add Form + Constituent Page Expression Data View Form

Launch Business Process

The business process

Record operation

Ex. A custom task could be implemented to “Delete Constituent.”

The record operation

The feature associated with a Delete Constituent task is Delete Constituent (the Record operation).
