# Edit project plan tasks

> [HTML Version](change-plan-tasks.html)

If you want to make changes to a project plan, open it in the [editing mode](create-or-change-plan.md).

In the task list, you can:

1. Edit task data in the table columns. To do that, click the cell you want to edit and enter new information. Please note that the system administrator may [restrict editing](project-plan-widget.md#inline-tasks) of certain columns to prevent accidental changes. 

2. You can change the structure of the task list and configure their [nesting](create-plan-items.md) by moving tasks using the Drag-and-Drop method.

3. Use the task context menu. To do that, hover over its name and click the three dots icon. Select what you want to do:

	- Open the task form to edit it.

	- Execute a published task or return a completed task to work: it is available for a plan item of the **Task** or **Milestone** type.

	- Create a task copy at the same level with all its subtasks and [links](plan-items-links.md).

	- [Add a subtask](create-plan-items.md#subtask) of **Task** or **Process** type: it is available for a plan item of **Task** type and for a [stage task](plan-tasks-types.md).

	- Delete a task.

	- Restore a task deleted in the current draft before it is published. To show these tasks in the plan, enable the [Show deleted](create-or-change-plan.md#show-deleted) option.

4. Apply bulk actions to selected tasks: delete tasks or create copies of them.

If a task of the **Task** or **Milestone** type is deleted, it is assigned the **Canceled** status. Such tasks can be viewed in [Tasks > Project tasks](project-tasks.md#project-tasks), on the **All** tab. It will be crossed out.

You cannot change the start and end dates for a stage task. They are determined automatically by the deadlines of the nested tasks.

## Change dates in the color chart

You can edit a task’s start and end dates in the project plan. To do this, move the task bar using the Drag-and-Drop method. To edit the start and end dates, drag the left or right border of the task bar forward or backward.
