As projects evolve, it is common for project scope to change, at times requiring the creation of additional System Elements - in a variety of statuses - and alongside that requiring the creation of additional Task Templates to ensure Task assignment for those new System Elements. To accomodate accommodate project progress and ensure completion of the entire project scope, Work Package Templates now allow distinguishing between generating Tasks for all SE Statuses or future SE Statuses. The project administrator can create system elements in the appropriate status and use a single work package template to generate tasks. To support this functionality, the work package generator will only generate tasks for "future" statuses of a System Element. It is important to note that once a task is created, it will not be deleted if the system element transitions to other statuses. The tasks generated for a specific status will remain open until completed.
