Scheduling Configurations

You are here:

The MxAPS Scheduling Configurations page contains a list of scheduling configurations. A scheduling configuration is a user ID specific set of values used to set the initial values when generating a schedule. The scheduling configuration updates based on the last values used when generating a schedule. When a user generates a schedule for the first time, the DEFAULT configuration is copied to a new record for their user ID.
