This activity is used to view and register Resource Preferences on the Standard Task. When a job is carried out, resources can be registered as preferred resources in the Request Work Tasks. Preferences registered on the Standard Task will be inherited by the Request Work Task when registering a Request Work Task. Once the Request Work Task is scheduled, prioritization will be given to the preferred set of resources over others.
When registering preferences directly on the Standard Task, entering a Resource Type ID and Preference is mandatory. The preference can be 0, 1, or any value between 0 and 1. Entering a preference of 1 indicates that no other resources should be considered for the job, and a value of 0 restricts using such resources on the job. A value between 0 and 1, such as 0.5, works on a sliding scale of preference.
As a result of this activity Resource Ppreferences are registered in the Standard Task.
