Configuring Life Cycle Task
---------------------------

- **Navigate** to the **Tasks Life Cycle** tab.
- **Select** the resource, state, and (optionally) sub-state to monitor for expiration in the **left section**.
- **Choose** the resource, state, and (optionally) sub-state to be assigned after the expiration of the previous resource in the **right section**.
- **Define** the extra days to extend the new resource’s **end date**. The calculation begins from the last end date of the previous resource.

Summary
-------

The **Life Cycle Task**, when configured as described, will:

- **Analyze** the Supann resource for the targeted user on a **daily basis**.
- **Check** if the configured state has expired.
-  **If expired**, update the Supann resource to the desired configuration.

.. note::
   This ensures automatic resource management and helps maintain up-to-date configurations.
