Configure Task Occurrence Generator

The Task Occurrence Generator Configuration form may be configured to adjust how far ahead of current time to generate new task occurrences. The generator will add the blocks of time to Task List, and populate those hours with anticipated tasks. Tasks/hours into the future are only generated a specified amount of time ahead in order to efficiently manage system resources.

The settings on the Task Occurrence Generator Configuration should only be adjusted by a Netsmart associate.
