There are 6 task types and 2 that are used internally:

Attached to Event	The task is associated with a particular event, which must be assigned.
Attached to Performance	The task is associated with a particular performance, which must be assigned.
Background	The task is will appear as a background event that colours the entire background of the calendar for that day. This is used for things like holidays or items of significance to everyone, such as "Board meeting all day".
Meeting	The task is a "normal" event, not associated with any particular event or performance. This is the most commonly used type.
Notification	The task is to show for everyone as a notification or announcement. It will appear on everyone's calendar without having to add them as a participant.
To Do	The task represents some deadline. It does not have a starting date, only a Drop Dead date. It must be completed before a certain date, but doesn't matter when it is done, such as a grant deadline.
Internal Only
Project	The task record is actually a project that has other tasks associated with it.
Task	Internally assigned to each task that is not a project.

While you cannot change the meaning of each of these, you can change the description to something more meaningful to your organization.

These are used as the general types for the Facility Task Types you will use to define the type of each task.
