Scheduling a Quote
The below instructions have been written from the perspective of scheduling a Task. Scheduling a Quote is done in exactly the same manner as described below but from the Quote Worksheet, or Quote List.
There are two exceptions to the below instructions:
- The Schedules tab says Schedule
- Schedules are still displayed on the bottom of the quote worksheet, but there is no ‘Upcoming Schedules’ wording.

Task worksheet - Upcoming Schedules
The easiest way to schedule a task is from the Upcoming Schedules section on the bottom of the task worksheet.
Click Create Task Schedule to open the task schedule in the Calendar.
From here, you can add resources to the schedule, change the date, add additional schedules, etc.
Task already scheduled?
If the task has already been scheduled, you'll see a list of upcoming schedules and the Create Task Schedule button will say All Task Schedules (see top image, above). You can still use this to schedule to more resources, create further schedules, etc.
Current Task List
|
You can also schedule a task via the Current Task list (Workflow > Tasks > Open). From the Scheduled column, click Set. This will also open the task schedule in the Calendar. Task already scheduled? Similar to above, if the task has already been scheduled, the next scheduled date will appear in the Scheduled column (see image). Click this to access the schedule window where you can edit the schedule if necessary. |
