Job Management

Box Schedule

About Box Schedule

Box Schedule is one of two methods used in Phase Management (Task View is the other). In Box Schedule, users can manage multiple tasks from multiple jobs at the same time. Box Schedule lists job names across the top of the page, while Task View lists job and task names down the left of the page. In both these views, the Left Navigation Bar has been removed to provide more viewing space.

Box Schedule allows users to start or complete one task or multiple tasks simultaneously, as in Job Management Express (JME). The difference with Box Schedule is that it allows users to view and update these tasks from multiple jobs at the same time. For example, users may choose to start 12 tasks from 5 different jobs at the same time.

If the user has the role function "Jobs: Box Sch Start & Comp Tasks," the user can start and complete the a task at the same time. The default for this page is that a user cannot start and complete tasks simultaneously.

Click on a task hyperlink to open the Task Action pop-up window, which provides a more efficient viewing method whereas JME displays a separate detail page. Box Schedule has a Sticky Date feature that is also available in Task View. The sticky date allows users to quickly change Start and End Dates with a single click. Box Schedule is more compact than Task View or JME–users may view more jobs at a time, but the page displays less detail information about each task.
