Tasks
If more than one task is generated by this event, should this task always be created?
Example, you could have a task for a complaint for customer services to call the customer, but also another task for a manager to call the carrier. If you state “Always”, both will be created. Hightest priority will only create the one with the highest priority.
How many days before the task becomes “active”. If a start is entered on 9/24 you may want to wait to call them a few days after the start.

Starts can create a task for a suspended start due to it having no route, or for not receiving a payment.Yes = Always.No = No tasks for suspended starts.Only = Only when the start is suspended.
