Before you begin

Prerequisites

You do not need any special permissions to use the Schedule Manager application.

If you are upgrading and have existing data, see the asynchronous attribute consolidation utility for information on the procedure required to successfully upgrade data.

Enable Schedule Manager

Schedule Manager does not need to be enabled before you use it.

If you have trouble accessing Schedule Manager, see your system administrator. It may be a licensing issue.

Note: You can log on to Teamcenter only once. If you try to log on to more than one workstation at a time, you see an error message.

Configure Schedule Manager

There are additional steps you must perform to configure Schedule Manager before you can use it.

In a Teamcenter deployment installed across multiple machines, the Teamcenter Schedule Management Service is supported to run on a single machine and should be disabled on the other machines.

For information about configuring Schedule Manager, see Setting the site time zone.

Start Schedule Manager

Click Schedule Manager in the navigation pane.

Note: Teamcenter Dispatcher is required for some schedule operations, such as:

• In My Teamcenter, using File→Save As for a schedule using the Background option.
• Using the Shift Schedule command when the Run in Background option is selected.
• Creating a new schedule from a template with Background Copy selected.

For more information, see Configuring asynchronous services in the Dispatcher Server Translators Reference.

Workflow to Scheduling integration

You must install and configure the Workflow to Scheduling Integration option in Teamcenter Environment Manager (TEM) to initiate workflows on schedule tasks where the workflow trigger type is Scheduled start date, Both Scheduled start date and predecessors complete, or Either Scheduled start date and predecessors complete.

Workflow to Scheduling Integration is discussed in Teamcenter features.
