Schedules
A schedule is a timetable that illustrates the relationship between resources and events (called bookings in Oberplan).
Create a Schedule
To create a schedule, click the button on the toolbar of the My Schedules view.
The schedule page is divided into different sections:
When you're finished configuring the schedule, click the button at the top of the page to create the new schedule, or click the button to discard it.
The schedule name is the only mandatory field. The name must be unique across all existing schedules owned by you.
Select at least one working day and enter the daily working times. The working times must not include a day break. Enter 0:00 am in both time fields for all-day working days.
Non-working times are shown with special colors on the schedule chart and are not included when the working hours of a booking are calculated.
Select the week numbering system that determines on which day the week begins. The week number is shown on the timescale along the top of the schedule chart
You have the following options for the week numbering system:
| Name | First day of week | First week of year contains |
|---|---|---|
| European / ISO 8601 | Monday | 4 January / 1st Thursday |
| American | Sunday | 1 January |
| Middle East | Saturday | 1 January |
