Edit an Activity Type is used to edit an existing Activity Type. You may edit the name, description, instructions, audibility, additional data fields or the order in which this Activity Type appears in the global Activity Types list. Your edits will affect all Project Types that use this Activity Type.
Activity Types are used to classify the kinds of activities that occur in the organization's projects. Each Activity Type is associated with a set of activity data fields that store information about this type of activity. Activity Types that are needed for audit purposes are flagged as auditable. When configuring a Project Type, the Super Admin selects all the Activity Types that will be available for use in projects of this type. For more information, see the Concepts document Managing Activity Types.
