Working with a Schedule Definition

A schedule definition is a named set of one or more scheduling types to be included in a schedule. For example, a schedule definition can include test point, rectifier, and bond scheduling types – each with different scheduling properties set up in Edit Schedule Settings. A schedule definition is used when performing any of the following tasks in PCS Axis:

•	viewing facilities in a data entry grid based on a schedule

•	building a survey in a data entry grid based on a schedule

•	transferring a survey that is based on a schedule to the Allegro Field PC

•	printing a data collection form that is based on a schedule for manually recording survey data

Note: A scheduling type is a named set of scheduling properties for a facility type set up in Edit Schedule Settings. For more information, see Schedule Type Settings.

Two types of schedule definitions are available for use. They include installed and addition schedule definitions. An installed schedule definition is one that has been installed during the PCS Axis software installation. An addition schedule definition is one that you create.
