Change Types

Updates using Statusing methods with the changeXml parameter are supported only for specific assignment and task fields. Use the following tables to identify the assignment and task fields that can be updated using a changeXml parameter. These tables also contain the process identifier (PID) values, required data types, and valid change types for the supported fields.

  • Table 1 lists information for supported assignment fields.

  • Table 2 lists information for supported task fields.

  • Table 3 describles data type formats.

  • Table 4 describes the supported change types and the XML elements used to define them.

Note

In the AssnConstID class and the TaskConstID class, you can use the fields that are not specified for internal use to help create a changeXml parameter.
