• Creation and Scheduling:
◦ Deliverables inherit scheduling attributes from the plan activity (for example, Estimated Start Date, Estimated Finish Date, Deadline, Owner, and % Work Complete).
◦ Modified scheduling attributes on the plan activity are synchronized across all linked deliverables
◦ Unassigned deliverables can only be assigned to a single plan activity
◦ The plan activity picker restricts assignment to eligible plan activities that are in (Scheduled) status and not already linked to the same deliverable
◦ Existing deliverables' scheduling attributes such as Estimated Start Date, Estimated Finish Date, Deadline, Owner, and % Work Complete cannot be edited.
• Tracking Progress:
◦ Progress is tracked at the plan activity, and deliverables are synchronized accordingly
◦ Deliverables are marked as Complete when the associated plan activity is marked as Complete.
• Reassignment:
◦ Deliverables can be reassigned only if the current plan activity remains eligible
◦ Scheduling attributes are properly synchronized upon reassignment
