  • Orders on the target Prod. system with the same names as Orders on the source Int. system will be automatically assigned the Frequency or Frequencies for the exported Calendar(s) that the Orders on the Int. System were assigned, where Frequencies are Calendar, Period and Restrictions. In the current example, this means that on the target Prod. system:
    • The Order inpexp_1, will be assigned the Frequency:
      1. cal_sat, configured with every Saturday, and a Single Start Period at 12:00
        Note that a Frequency for the cal_sun Calendar will not be assigned to this Order as the Calendar for such a Frequency was not included in the export.
    • The Order inpexp_2, will be assigned the Frequency:
      1. cal_sat, configured with every Saturday, and a Single Start Period at 21:00
        Note that the already assigned Frequency with the cal_fr Calendar will neither be modified not overwritten.  
  • Frequency information for an Order on the Int system that was included in the export will not be imported into the Prod. system if an Order with the same name is not found on the Prod. system.
    • This means that in the example, the exported information for the inpexp_3 Order will not be imported.

Verifying the Import

Once the import has been carried out the imported Calendar(s) can be seen in the Resources / Calendars view, in the appropriate folder, as can be seen in the next screenshot, which shows the already existing cal_fri Calendar and the imported cal_sat and cal_mo-fr Calendars.

  • in the JobChains view where the Next Start information (shown in green) in the next screenshot has not been updated;
  • when the Show Daily Plan function is called for the relevant Order.

Updating the Daily Plan

The Daily Plan is updated with the Frequency information for the newly imported Calendar(s) by the createDailyPlan Order, which can be found in the ./sos/dailyplan Folder of the JobScheduler Master's live Folder. This Order is configured by default to run every day at 00:01 but can also be started manually using the Order's Start Order Now function.

This will cause a confirmatory window to open as shown in the next screenshot:

 

Note that the deployment procedure for updating an existing Calendar is as conservative as already described above for a "new" Calendar.

The next screenshot shows that after the update has been completed the 2018 National Holidays are available as a fully editable Frequency:

...

Note that in contrast with the procedure described for deploying a "new" Calender, when updating an already existing Calendar there is no need for the createDailyPlan Order to be run before the Daily Plan is updated. The next screenshot shows the Calendar after the update with the Validity To setting now changed to 31.12.2018.

Update Verification

The Set Run-time Show Preview function in the Job Chain or Order view for an Order or Job that has been assigned the updated Calendar can be used to check that the update has been correctly applied as shown in the next screenshot:
