Set Schedule

You use the Set Schedule dialog box to specify the schedule or time interval for a repeating event to occur. For example, you can specify a regular schedule for billing. After you make your selections, you can use the Preview button to preview the schedule that is based on your current settings.

The default schedule is to repeat the event once a month, on the first day of the month at 12:00 AM.

To specify a schedule or time interval for a repeating event:

  1. From the Schedule field, click Set Schedule .

  2. On the Set Schedule dialog box, click a radio button to specify the time interval for the event to repeat.

  3. For the selected interval, specify additional parameters if necessary.

For example, if you specify that the event should repeat once a month (every one month), you must specify the day of the month and the time of day that the event should be scheduled to repeat.

Note: If you specify a time, you must type the time followed by a space and "AM" or "PM." For example, 2:00 AM.

  1. Click Preview to see a preview of the first 20 occurrences of this time interval in the schedule that would result from your current settings.

  2. If necessary, revise the schedule settings and click Preview again.

  3. When you are satisfied with the preview schedule, click OK to specify the schedule and close the dialog box. Click Cancel to close the dialog box without specifying a schedule.

  4. Click Save . The system saves any changes and sets the schedule.
