# New

## [Scheduling mode](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/DLP/pages/350421234)

### “Auto-basic” scheduling task mode introduced

Tasks in the “auto-basic” mode respond to:

- days off
- dependencies
- react to the influence of its parent (top-down)
- move with its parent (when the parent is moved)

Auto basic **will not**: (as opposed to “Auto bottom-up” mode)

- move tasks beneath it (its children)
- extend itself to its children's dates
