  1. Select Shared Services > Objects > Schedules.
    The Schedules page appears.
  2. Click the plus icon (Blue plus symbol suggesting an action like adding or expanding content.).
    The Create Schedules page appears.
  3. Complete the configuration of the schedule according to the following guidelines:
    Table 1: Fields on the Create Schedules Page

    General Information

    Name

    		 Required. Enter a unique name for the service. It must begin with an alphanumeric character and cannot exceed 63 characters. Dashes and underscores are allowed.

    Description

    		 Enter a description for your service. You should make this description as useful as possible for all administrators.
    Dates

    Date Range

    Select Ongoing if you want your schedules to always be active.

    Select Custom to configure two sets of start and end dates for a single schedule. For the first set, enter dates in the Start Date and End Date fields. You must enter the days in MM/DD/YYYY format.

    For the second set of the schedule, enter the start date in the Second Start Date field and enter the end date in the Second End Date field.
    Times

    Time Range

    Create a schedule to be active daily or for any specific times of the day.

    Daily Options

    Select Custom to enter specific days and times. Click on a specific day to specify time options for an entire day, to exclude a specific day, or to enter time ranges for the selected day. You must enter the time in HH:MM:SS format.

    For example, if you click on Monday, you get a dialog box that allows you to specify whether you want the schedule to be active all day Monday, exclude Monday from the schedule, or have the schedule be active at specific times.
