Time Entry Collections enable you to create groups of other schedule types, including holidays, work weeks, or special case schedules. For example, you can define individual holidays and then group all the holidays on the calendar as a timeEntryCollection – US Holidays Calendar. This can then be used in a schedule entry with “Permit” or “Deny”.
Note A Time Entry Collection can be used in more than one schedule but only if the schedules have the same action (such as Allow or Deny). If a Time Entry Collection is assigned to schedules with different actions, then the schedule operation will be inconsistent.
Step 1 Select Time Entry Collection from the Doors menu, under the Schedule Manager submenu.
Step 2 Click Add, or select an existing entry and click Edit.
The Add or Edit Time Entry Collection dialog box appears.
Step 3 Type the Name of the value.
Step 4 Select the Hierarchical location.
Step 5 Type a short text Description.
Step 6 Select the Type. For example, Holiday, Work Week, or Special Case.
Step 7 Select a Value for the selected Type. For example, if you selected the Type Holiday, select Christmas. To create a new value, click New to open an Add dialog box.
Step 8 Select a Time Range. For example, Default Time Range Group.
To create a new time range, click New to open an Add dialog box.
Step 9 If you selected Month, select the specific month for the schedule, or select Every Month.
Step 10 Click Add to add the entry.
Step 11 Repeat the previous steps to add more items to this time entry collection.
Step 12 When you are done, click Save and Close.
Note Time Entry collections can be added by users only for locations or sub-locations assigned to their user profile. This is based on system configuration settings. For more information, see Logins Settings.
