    About this task

    When you create an ad hoc task, it is automatically assigned to the data owner specified in the metric definition form. It is important to note that for manual metric definitions these ad hoc tasks:
    • do not contribute to the aggregated metric definition data.
    • are not considered for entity hierarchy rollup.
    • are not evaluated for threshold rating, Variance(%)
    However, for calculated metric definitions that have the Calculation level field set to Entity, the ad hoc tasks data contribute to the metric score.

    Procedure

    1. Navigate to All > Operational Sustainability Management > Operational Sustainability Workspace > Lists > Metrics > Manual metric definitions.
    2. Select and open the required metric definition.
    3. Open the metric for which you want to create ad hoc tasks.
    4. Select Create ad hoc task.
    5. In the Ad hoc metric data task dialog box, provide the start date, end date, and due date of the task.
    6. Select Submit.
