To add a new Area in BizScheduler, follow these steps:
- Go to the Hub and select the Areas link under the Setup / Configuration section
- On the Areas screen you will see all Areas currently configured for your BizScheduler
- Click the [Add New Area] button
- Provide an Area Name
- Determine the Earliest and Latest times to show on the schedule (Job Calendar grid)
- Set the first and last days of the week that you want to display on the schedule (e.g. Monday through Friday)
- Select a background color from the color palette (feel free to experiment)
- Click the [Save] button to save the new Area
From this screen you can tell BizScheduler if this Area has a Calendar to display, if it is available for the Smart Scheduling tool, whether or not it is Active, and which Workers you want to display on the calendar, be members of crews (if using the Crews capabilities), and have access to the area.
After returning to the list of Areas, if you want to change the order of the Areas as they will appear in the dropdown lists and checklists throughout BizScheduler, click and drag the Area that you want to move, and then release it at the destination in the list that you would like it to appear.
