Create a Compound Timeslot Template

Compound timeslots combine elements of both weekly and yearly timeslots. When defining a compound timeslot template, you can either combine a yearly and a weekly timeslot, or exclude the times defined in one timeslot from the other. For example, you can define a timeslot template that includes the standard work week defined in a weekly timeslot and excludes the holidays defined in a yearly timeslot.

To create a compound timeslot template

1. In the Timeslot Templates page, click Add New/Compound Timeslot Template.

   The Compound Timeslot Template page opens.

2. In Name, enter a name for the timeslot template.
3. In Description, enter a description for the timeslot template.
4. In Included Timeslots, select the weekly and yearly timeslots whose times should be added to the compound timeslot from the Available Timeslots list and click the upper arrow, or double-click the timeslot.

   The timeslot moves to the Included list.

5. In Excluded Timeslots, select the weekly and yearly timeslots whose times should be excluded from the compound timeslot from the Available Timeslots list and click the lower arrow.

   The timeslot moves to the Excluded list.

   Note: If required, click View Details to view the details of a timeslot before adding it or excluding it from the compound timeslot template. You can add weekly or yearly timeslots directly from this page by clicking on the appropriate button.

6. Click Save.

   The new timeslot template is created and added to the list timeslot templates.

   Note: A grid can be generated from the timeslot details.
