I want to create one period per week in 2012. So I will put:

  • Number of periods to be created: 52
  • Date the first period Starts: 01.01.2012
  • Length of the standard period (days): 1
  • Prefix: FP2012-

and I will hit the Create Bulk button, because I don’t want to create each period manually, and I will get:

Now, look at the last period:

I want one more period from 30.12.2012 to 31.12.2012. So I will select last period and I will click on the Insert After button, and I will create this period manually:

Status of each period can be Open or Closed. If it is Closed nobody will be able to report Task progressing, or any other activity for that (closed) period!

Regards!
