Publish schedules

Enter a publishing date to define how far ahead schedules are visible to agents. This is an end date. The agents can see all schedule content before and on the selected date. Schedules later than this date are visible to users with the Global Functions > View unpublished schedules permission. If there is an open preference period, any schedules in the default scenario within that period are also visible to the agents.

If there is no publish date set, no schedule is published.

NOTE   You can only publish schedules in the default scenario.
