    Schedule Definition is now selected.

    The root jobnet you clicked is now selected.

  3. Choose Edit and then Edit, or double-click the root jobnet.

    The Jobnet Editor window appears.

  4. In the tree area of the Jobnet Editor window, click a nested jobnet and choose Edit and then Schedule.

    The Schedule Settings dialog box appears.

  5. Click the Copy Upper button.

    A message dialog box appears for confirming that the schedule rules of the upper-level jobnet will be copied.

  6. Click the Yes button.

    The schedule rules of the upper-level jobnet are copied.

  7. Click the OK button.

    The Schedule Settings dialog box is closed.

Cautionary notes
  • If schedule rules have already been set in the jobnet to which you want to copy the schedule rules from the upper-level jobnet, the existing schedule rules are lost.

  • You cannot copy the following items from the upper-level jobnet:

    - Linked rule number in the Schedule rules list

    - Exclusive jobnet specified in the Options group with Exclusive schedule check box selected

Supplementary notes
  • You can click Copy Upper button only when all the following conditions are satisfied:

    - The Schedule Settings dialog box was displayed with a lower-level jobnet specified

    - Depends on upper-level jobnet is not selected

  • If Depends on upper-level jobnet is selected in the upper-level jobnet, the schedule rules of the jobnet one level upper are referenced. The upper-level jobnets can be referenced and referenced up to the root jobnet.
