4.7 Configuring the Shift Schedule

To configure the shift schedule, select “Configure” and then “Schedule” from the LinkNet menu. A

dialog box similar to Figure 4.12 will appear. For each shift configured, a set of times for each day that
the shift is active needs to be entered. The starting and ending time of each shift can be configured in 10-
minute intervals. By default, when a shift is added (see Section 4.6) it gets a disabled time entry for
each day of the week. As shown in Figure 4.12, each day gets an independent schedule. That is, shift 1
(or any shift for that matter) can have different hours on each day of the week.

Figure 4.12 Pressroom Schedule Listing Dialog Box

Clicking any of the radio buttons (labeled Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, etc) will display the scheduled

times for that day. In addition, there is a separate radio button for one-time adjustments. Unlike the day
of week settings, which apply every day of that week (every Monday, for example), a one-time
adjustment overrides the schedule only from one day and time to another day and time.

Notice also that a “Set This Day The Same As Monday” button is available when viewing every day

except Monday and when viewing “One-Time Adjustments”.

Note: Since Monday thorough Friday typically uses the same schedule, Monday can be set up first, and
then the other days can be set the same as Monday by clicking the “Set This Day The Same As Monday”
button when viewing the other days.

The listing area in this dialog box has several headings for the schedule information:


Name: The name of the schedule entry for the day displayed.

Time Type: The type of time for the schedule entry. This can be one of the following types:

Normal Daily Schedule: A normal scheduled shift time that applies for the given day of the
week. For every configured shift, a schedule entry of this type is provided for each day.
