Scan Group for a Flexible Period Window (Vertical Format)





The Scan Group Flexible Period window displays all bookings for all the  resources in a resource group for a period that you select. This window is to be used whenever you need to scan periods other than days, weeks or months and you prefer the Vertical Format display, with time slots listed down the window, and resources listed across.

The display is controlled by the values entered at the top of the window.  Initial values are taken from Scan settings in the Update User Preferences window. Click the Go button to display the bookings using the values in the top fields. If the word Go is red, the display no longer reflects those values and needs to be refreshed.

If you have assigned status colors and then assigned a status to any booking, the chosen color will appear in the scan display for that booking when you select Status as the option in the Color Source drop-down list.

The days are listed across the window, with the resources listed down. Bookings are displayed as boxes at the intersections of days and resources.
