Adding Annual Calendars

1. Enter an Activity name.
2. Using the Start Date/Time and End Date/Time fields, choose the dates and time for the activity calendar to start and stop.

   Note: You do not have to think about time zones when you enter times here. For example, if you want to enter a last pickup time of 5:00 p.m. that is valid for all of the USA, you only need one calendar with the time set to 5:00 p.m.

3. The Activity field lists all the activities maintained in Power Data.

   Note: If the calendar will be used on an itinerary, you must have an Activity of ACTIVATE.

4. If you want the activity to occur during the period you defined, select Perform. If you want to exclude the activity from occurring between the start and end time, select Don't Perform.

   Note: Do not use CLOSED. Use Don't Perform instead.

5. Use the Activity Time Factor field to affect how long appointments will take at a shipment stop.
6. Click Save.
7. Click Finished.
