Scheduled Orders

The Scheduled Orders tab displays the current schedule of orders for the dates selected in the criteria. In this tab, you can determine the schedule for the line by assigning orders to time slots in the schedule within the tab.

Note: If an order gets assigned to a slot already containing an order, and the currently scheduled order is not locked to that slot, the new order is assigned to the slot, and the previous order is removed from the schedule.

 

When you first populate the schedule, all of the dates in the Scheduled Orders tab will be collapsed. You can expand a specific date by either double clicking on the date or by clicking on the arrow on the far left side of the date row. (The same can be done to collapse the date.) To expand or collapse all dates in the schedule, use the right click menu, as described below.

If you want to go to a specific date in the schedule, use the navigation tool in the top of the tab (shown below). Enter the date and click Go, and the desired date will be shown at the top of the Scheduled Orders tab.
