Excluding a task prevents it from being used automatically in a project grouping. For example, if an object is breaking a build, you can exclude the task that contained that object.
About this task
A build manager might exclude a task to prevent team members from getting a bad task, then specify one task to fix another. Alternatively, a build manager might exclude a task that contains features being pulled from a release. In this case, the build manager would not create a fix task.
You can exclude a completed task only.
Procedure
- Right-click over the appropriate completed task and select Exclude. When the task is excluded a small red x is displayed over the task icon.
- If you do not want the task to be excluded, right-click over the task and select Remove Exclusion.
