Use Activities in the Work Plan
This article explains how to use Activities in the OnePlan work planner.
Open the Activities pane to add multiple activities for a selected task. Activities allow for smaller pieces of work to be tracked, that don't need to be a full task in the plan. This allows agile planning of work within the overall plan/schedule.
