Set Up Schedule Rotation

Your Weekly Templates settings determine the default template to use for each day of the week. You can use the same defaults over and over, or create additional weekly sets of defaults to provide for rotating and changing scheduling needs.

How to Get Here

• Grid Scheduler > Grid tools arrow > Weekly Templates.

   

  First, open your Grid Scheduler. Then select Weekly Templates from the Grid Tools drop down menu.

  

  ---

Choose Your Settings

• Add rotating weekly schedules - If you do not work the same schedule every week, but instead regularly rotate among two or more schedules, click Add Weekto create those weeks. As your schedule progresses, ViewPoint will rotate among the default weekly templates automatically.

  For example, you might create a two-week schedule if you work in a satellite office every other Tuesday and Wednesday. If your schedule is less regular, such as “satellite office third Tuesday of the month,” set your basic schedule here, then use the Template Calendarto identify the non-standard days.
