Building schedules with Schedule Builder

Note:

After you generate a schedule with Schedule Builder, you must accept or reject schedule changes before you can generate another schedule.

To build a schedule with Schedule Builder
  1. Click the Tools tab
  2. In the Schedule Builder group, click Manual.
  3. Under Schedule name, select a schedule.
  4. Specify the scheduling parameters on each tab of the Schedule Builder tool.
  5. Click Build.

    A dialog box appears reminding you that changes to the schedule will not be committed to the database until you click Accept Schedule.

  6. Click OK.

    The Accept Schedule and Reject Schedule buttons appear in the toolbar.

  7. Verify the schedule.
  8. Make any required modifications manually.
  9. Click Accept schedule to save the new schedule.
    Note:
    • After you click Accept Schedule, the schedule is live in the database and the Accept Schedule button disappears. If you click Reject Schedule, the automatically generated schedule and any manual modifications are deleted from the schedule. See "Creating and adjusting schedules manually".
    • If there are any conflicts, a dialog box appears stating the number of conflicts. You cannot save a schedule with conflicts. Click Yes to delete the conflicts and accept the schedule, or click No to adjust the schedule. When you have resolved the conflicts, click Accept Schedule again to save the schedule.
