At any time, you can modify an existing schedule in PADS4 Scheduler. This allows you to adjust:

  • Where the presentation is displayed (Destination)
  • When it is displayed (Display Period / Recurrence)
  • The Priority of the schedule
  • The Content of the presentation

Note:
If access permissions are in place, you may only have rights to modify specific destinations or priority levels. In such cases, some options may be hidden or disabled based on your role.


Ways to Edit a Schedule

You can edit a schedule using three methods:


1. Using the Ribbon Bar

  • Select a schedule in the main view
  • Navigate to the Home tab
  • Use the controls in the Manage Schedule and Priority groups to:
    • Edit schedule properties
    • Increase or decrease schedule priority

2. Using the Context Menu

  • Right-click on the schedule you want to edit
  • Select Edit from the context menu that appears

3. Using Drag & Drop (for Rescheduling)

You can visually move a schedule to a new date using drag and drop:

  1. Hover over the schedule
  2. Click and hold the mouse button
  3. Drag the schedule to a new date in the calendar view
  4. Release the mouse button to drop it into the new time slot

This will reschedule the presentation, keeping all other properties (e.g., destination, priority) unchanged.
