What can you do on this screen?
Subtasks are major parts of a task. Depending on the competency statement, you may want to create subtasks to break up the main task. You can also break down a subtask into two or more steps, if needed. The Subtask screen has three tabs that you can minimize to see just the information you are working on:
•Subtask - for the main information about the subtask.
•Subtask Attributes - to list the conditions and standards under which the subtask is performed on the job, along with any resources that someone would have available when they do the subtask on the job.
•Interventions - any existing interventions that support the subtask, selected from the Interventions in LEAD.

•Paste: Duplicate/Move 
a copied step to the selected subtask.
Note: You cannot Paste a copied step when the selected subtask is Locked.
oDuplicate will create a copy of the step. The Status of the copied step will be updated to Incomplete when it is pasted. You can use the Duplicate option to make copies of the step in other initiatives.
oMove will move the step under the selected subtask. When you move a step, the Status of the moved step does not change. You cannot move a step to another initiative.
•Preview 
the skill hierarchy.
•Delete 
the selected subtask (including all steps under the subtask). Once you've selected OK to the confirmation message, an Undo button displays on the bottom left of the screen that allows you to revert the deletion.
•Explain Flag 
to review the reasons the subtask has been flagged.
•Lock 
the subtask to prevent edits from taking place.

This tab captures the main information about the subtask in the following fields.  Figure 80: Task Analysis > Skill Detail Screen - Edit Subtask Tab Verb The action Verb that defines the behavior of the skill. If a verb is not available, it can be added to the list on the Library > Verbs screen. Text The Text of the skill or the actual behavior of the skill (minus the verb). Version The Version number of the skill. All skills start with version 1. Once the initiative has been approved, changes can no longer be made, unless a new version of the initiative is created. Then changes can be made as needed for the new version. When viewing the skill, you can view a previous version by selecting it from the Version drop-down. The Status of the skill from lowest to highest status: •Incomplete - the skill is a work in progress and/or is missing some required data as defined in a business rule. •Complete - the skill is complete, including all subordinate/child items. •Lock for Review oThe skill is complete and ready for review. oYou can only edit the skill if you have the Review privilege assigned to your role. oTo change the Status to Lock for Review, you need the Edit or Review privilege assigned to your role. oTo change the Status back to Incomplete or Complete, you need the Review privilege assigned to your role. •Locked oThe skill is complete and has been reviewed, no more work is allowed. oNo one can edit the skill and related content without unlocking the skill first. oTo change the Status to Locked, you need the Lock privilege assigned to your role. oTo change from Locked to any other status, you need the Unlock privilege assigned to your role. •Approved oThe skill is approved when the initiative is approved. oNo more changes can be made to this version, you must create a new version of the initiative in order to make changes. When you save a change in Status or lock a skill, the required Business Rules will run to check whether anything is missing for the skill or any of its children. Any identified issues are listed on the Business Rules Results screen. If the status of a skill is increased (say from Incomplete to Complete), all subordinate/child skills of it will also be changed to that status, if they have a lower status. If the status of a skill is decreased (say from Lock for Review to Complete), the status of all parent/higher items will be decreased to be no higher than that value. For example, an Incomplete task has one subtask that is Incomplete, one Complete, and one Locked. If the task is changed to Lock for Review, the Incomplete and Complete subtasks are changed to Lock for Review. The Locked subtask remains Locked, as it has a higher status. If the Locked subtask is changed to Complete, the task is changed to Complete (as would the job and duty, if their status was above Complete). The remaining subtasks’ statuses are unchanged. Type The Type of skill. This is set by the system when the skill is created. Subtask Type The Type of the skill is based on the learning domains of: •Cognitive - based on Bloom's revised taxonomy for the cognitive learning domain that covers mental skills and knowledge. •Affective - based on Krathwohl's taxonomy (an adaptation of Bloom's taxonomy) for the affective learning domain that covers emotional growth and feelings. •Psychomotor - based on Atkinson's adaptation of Dave's taxonomy for the psychomotor learning domain that covers manual or physical skills. While you cannot change the learning domains, the proficiency levels for each learning domain can be customized to your organization's need on the Customizations > Lists > Proficiency Levels screens. Status of Training The Status of Training field shows how and if the skill is currently being trained. Proficiency Level The Proficiency Level of the skill. The available selection is based on the learning domain selected in the Task Type field. The proficiency levels for each learning domain can be customized to your organization's need on the Customizations > Lists > Proficiency Levels screens. Proficiency Definition The Proficiency Definition provides an example of how someone can know that the proficiency level has been reached. This example should be measurable in some way, whether speed, accuracy, quality, or another measure. Type of Training The Type of Training field lists the types of training that are or will be available to support the current skill. To add or edit the list: •Select the Type of Training link to open the Type of Training Selection screen.
