Users can ensure team members can only make scheduling requests within a preset time frame by setting up an open period.
When a member of a team wants to make a particular request with an open period, they will have to observe the time frame before completing their application. For instance, if the open period for vacation requests is set from 11/25/2017 through 12/31/2020, the user will not be able to request vacation time before 11/25/2017 or after 12/31/2020.
“Published through” simply means the date in which users with View access to the schedule will be able to see assignments on the schedule.
To update the publish date (i.e. when non-administrators can view assignments on a specific schedule) go to Schedule Publish + Lockout.
When going over the tutorial’s Tour Schedules option, the tour won’t load if the sidebar is collapsed. To fix this problem, navigate to the upper left corner of the screen and hit the Expand Sidebar icon.
