Exceptions Tab for Schedules (ScheduleWorX64)

The Exceptions tab can display a daily, weekly, monthly or timeline view calendar. The primary use of the Exceptions tab is to create events that take precedence over previously defined scheduled events and to create recurring events that have periods other than weekly. When an exception takes place at the same time as a scheduled weekly or holiday event, the exception takes precedence. Only an override takes precedence over an exception.

To create a recurring exception, use the following instructions.

1. Select the Exceptions tab and select a date for the exception.
