On the Properties tab, you configure the properties for task sequence groups or individual task sequence steps. The configuration settings for:

·     Task sequence groups are the same for all groups

·     Task sequence steps are different for each task sequence step type

Table 56 lists the properties common to task sequence groups and steps. In addition to these properties, most task sequence steps have properties that are specific to the task sequence type.
