This action will look up the first available resource slot for every type of resource that is assigned to the location and is marked to constrain appointments. The appointment can be further manipulated manually. Saving the information will update the appointment time on the shipment or shipment group.

Note: This action allows you to schedule an appointment on the stops that do not have a partial appointment instead of preventing the creation of a normal appointment for the whole shipment.

The property 'glog.appointment.scheduleAppointment.LoadAppointmentWithAdminUserPrivlege' will change the gl_user to ADMIN user of the domain to grant broader privilege to the service provider user. This property is only used when loading a newly created appointment from the database which happens when the Dock screen refreshes after an appointment is scheduled.
