The Task Hierarchy can be added to any planned task table by:

## Procedure

1.  Navigating to **System UI** > **UI Actions**.

2.  Selecting one of the existing Task Hierarchy UI Actions \(for example, **Task hierarchy** if Project Management is activated\).

3.  Change the table to the desired table and rename the UI Action if appropriate, and insert.

    The hierarchy should now be available as a UI Action on the form of the new table.
