How to Schedule Days Off

Use this article to schedule days off on a system, site, department bench, and instrument level. Schedule Holidays off on a system level.

Default System Schedules

Note: The System Schedule is used to set which days testing is not being performed and therefore maintenance tasks are not required.

Changing this System Schedule will affect how Non-Compliant events are calculated.If a day is schedule as "off" the Non-Compliant alerts will not be triggered for the missing task entries.
