Cause

The Activity Timeline fine-tuning activity only allows to activate/deactivate an existing Activity (Example: Task, Appointment, Phone Call, Visit) and marking them as Internal /External. It does not allow to add a new Activity which is not already available. This is the reason why the Add Row is not offered out-of-the-box.

Resolution

To add a new Activity in the Activity Timeline view is a development request which needs to be evaluated by Product Management.

If you have such a requirement, report an case to SAP stating business reasons for such an Activity and we will assess the possibility in the system.
