Add Timers

If you want to add a timer rule that is very similar to an existing one, you can save yourself having to retype details by copying the existing timer and updating the copy as appropriate.

To add a timer rule

1. Enter /EADMIN.R.

   The Define Event Rules panel appears.

2. Type T at the prompt and complete the following field:

   Ruleset

   Specifies the name of the rule set with which you want to associate the timer rule.

   Press Enter.

   The Timer Rule List for the specified rule set appears.

3. Press F4 (Add).

   The Timer Description panel appears.

4. Complete the fields on this and subsequent timer rule panels, as required.

   Note: For more information, press F1 (Help).

   Note: If you enter YES in the Delete on Expiry? field, schedule items that have a full date specified are deleted when they pass their expiry date and time.

Note: You can also add or update timers from the Active Timer Display List (/EADMIN.S.T).
