Tag schedule days

Use schedule tags to mark days with a custom definition. Tags can be added manually, to days that are changed in the automatic scheduling or optimization and to days where manual changes are done.

The schedule tags can be used to lock all days with a certain tag, to prevent that it is changed by mistake.

EXAMPLE   The automatic tag is set to "Manual". All days where you perform manual changes, for example adding absences or moving lunches, are then automatically tagged with the tag "Manual". Lock the days tagged with “Manual”, to prevent those days from being changed by the optimization.
