The calendar is now ready to be marked for run dates. The marks on the calendar can be any alphabetic or numeric character that will indicate that a run will take place on that day. Each day can have two marks so multiple schedules can be used with the same calendar. When the calendar is associated with a job, the character is designated in the job as well as a start time which will then be used to schedule runs.
By inserting marks you can select individual days for scheduling jobs. There are two ways to edit the marks in the calendar. To edit the calendar directly:
To edit days directly:
1. Select the Edit directly radio button.
2. Select the month and year from the Marks for month of fields.
3. Click on the day that the characters will be added to.
4.Fill in the dialog box that appears with the desired letter(s).
To edit days using the toggle:
1. Select the Toggle mark radio button.
2. Enter the desired character in the Toggle Mark: field
3. Select the month and year from the Marks for month of fields.
4. Click on the dates that the character will be added to.
Disabling days makes them ineligible for scheduling in that calendar.
To disable days:
1. Select the Disable days radio button from the Month property page.
2. Click on the days to disable them from this calendar.
3. Click on OK and the characters will show disabled in the main calendar view.
To clear any marks, click on the Clear all marks button.
Once the calendar is properly set up, click on Next to advance to the final step in the Calendar Wizard.
