Scan Resource Group for a Day Window (Vertical Format)

 

Top  Previous  Next

The Scan Resource Group for a Day window displays all bookings for all the resources in a resource group or meta group for a selected day. Time slots are listed down the window with the resources listed across. Bookings are displayed as boxes at the intersections of the relevant time slots and resources. For those bookings that take place during the regular work day, as set in User Preferences, the length of the box is determined by the length of the booking. Those bookings that take place outside the regular workday occupy a single time slot labeled Before or After the regular work day starts or ends. You can view or change the booking information by double clicking the box.

 

The settings entered at the top of the window control the display. Initial settings are taken from Scan settings in the Update User Preferences window.

 

Click the Go button to display the bookings.
