Active Schedule Event Selection in Runtime

Schedules consist of schedule events. In runtime processing, the Schedules runtime service sets the currently active event for each schedule. The resolution process is based on the following parameters:

• Schedule Event Type: Each event type is assigned a different level of importance, from highest to lowest:

  • Exception events
  • Holiday events
  • Weekly events
• Schedule Event Priority: When schedule events of similar types are overlapping in the same time interval, the event with the highest priority is considered the active schedule event for that interval. Learn more

If no active event is found for a specific time interval, the schedule output is set to the Default Value.

This schedule event resolution approach enables Schedules to handle a variety of real-world scheduling scenarios, while offering flexibility in creating application-specific schedules.
