Using the Scheduler
The Scheduler screen provides a window on the Activities you or others in your organization have set up. Access the Scheduler by selecting Customer Management>Scheduler from the main menu, or by selecting the Scheduler button from the Activity Search screen Options menu.
Note: When the Activity>Use Time Zones for Activities application parameter is set to Y, date and time information related to activities will be displayed in the logged-in user's time zone; if no time zone is specified for the logged-in user, the logged-in property time zone is assumed; if the logged-in property does not have a time zone assigned, the database time zone is assumed. See Activity Time Zones for details.
