Setting up a Schedule

Previous topic Next topic  

To run a Schedule, you must first define all of the constraints of the schedule. This includes the schedule time frame, schedule resources, mining sequences, etc. This data can all be accessed from the Schedule Setup window. From the application menu, select Scheduling > Setup or click Schedule Setup on the Tools toolbar.

The schedule constraints do not have to be defined in a specific order. However, if you are new to XPAC, then it is recommended that you follow the order below to ensure you do not miss any items. The recommended order follows the same sequence that XPAC displays items in the schedule setup tree.
