The Scan functions can be adjusted to meet the user's preferences for the displayed time slots, the width of columns, the height of rows and the text in boxes that mark bookings. ResSched also uses some of these settings to generate drop-down lists from which users may make selections.
System Settings contains a default set of scan options that are used for every new user created. can also reset all users scan preferences to the default set.
When doing a Scan, initial settings are taken from your User Preferences. You can change these settings in the Scan windows, or you may change them in User Preferences. To set these options in User Preferences:
| 1. | Select File>User Preferences from the main menu to call the Update User Preferences window. Click the Scan Settings tab. |
2. Select and adjust the setting you wish to change.
| Begin work day | Enter the normal start time of the work day. made before this time will all be in a time slot labeled 'Before' and this time. |
| End work dDay | Enter the normal end time of the work day. Bookings made after this time will all be in a time slot labeled 'After' and this time. |
| Interval | In the Scan functions, enter how much time should be covered with each time slot. |
| Scan Width | Scan width determines how wide the columns are for some of the Scan windows and the printed Scan calendars. The wider the column, the greater the amount of booking information that can be included in the time slot box, but the fewer the resources that can be viewed at the same time or printed on one page. Scan width is measured in 'Dialog units' that are roughly equal to 4 dialog units per character. |
| Scan Height | Scan height determines the height of the time slot rows in Scan functions. The lower the height, the more time slots that can be accommodated in a window, but the harder it is to read them. |
| Scan Text | Scan Text is the text information that will be displayed in the time slot box of Scan windows and in the printed Scan calendars. Select between booking name, client, or mixing both (the first six characters of the booking followed by the client), or no text at all. |
3. Click the OK button.
