Annual Schedules

Internal Table Name: AnnualSchedules

The annual schedule allows you to specify Up and Down state changes for a particular calendar date, where Scheduled Up signifies the site is operational and Scheduled Down signifies the site is not operational. This functionality allows you to program specific days such as holidays. You can also use the annual schedule to activate a new weekly schedule to allow for seasonal variation.

Orders and shipments will be queued while a site is down and processed when the site becomes active again.
