You can split the selected utilization event by using the following commands:
-
Split Before: You can use this command to split the selected event into two events, each having half the duration of the selected event. After executing this command, the first half of the event becomes the selected event. The Start Time and End Time for the new events are calculated as follows:
First New Event
Start Time: same as that of the selected event
End Time: Start Time + (duration of the selected event/2)
Note: If the result of dividing the duration of the selected event is a fractional value, round up the number.
Second New Event
Start Time: Start time of the first new event + (duration of the selected event/2)
Note: If the result of dividing the duration of the selected event is a fractional value, round down the number.
End Time: same as that of the selected event
All the other settings of the new events, except the start and end times, are the same as that of the selected event.
Note: The Split Before command is disabled if the selected event cannot be edited.
-
Split After: You can use this command to split the selected event into two events, each having half the duration of the selected event. After executing this command, the second half of the event becomes the selected event. The Start Time and End Time for the new events are calculated as follows:
First New Event
Start Time: same as that of the selected event
End Time: Start Time + (duration of the selected event/2)
Note: If the result of dividing the duration of the selected event is a fractional value, round up the number.
Second New Event
Start Time: Start time of the first new event + (duration of the selected event/2)
Note: If the result of dividing the duration of the selected event is a fractional value, round down the number.
End Time: same as that of the selected event
All the other settings of the new events, except the start and end times, are the same as that of the selected event.
Note: The Split After command is disabled if the selected event cannot be edited.
You can delete the selected utilization event by using the following commands:
-
Delete Before: You can use this command to combine the selected event with the previous event. After executing this command, the selected event is deleted and the previous event becomes the selected event. The duration of the deleted event is added to the duration of the selected event. The Utilization Reason and Comments of the deleted event are retained by the selected event.
Note: The Delete Before command is disabled if the selected event cannot be edited or if it is the first event that can be edited.
-
Delete After: You can use this command to combine the selected event with the next event. After executing this command, the selected event is deleted and the next event becomes the selected event. The start time of the deleted event becomes the start time of the selected event. The Utilization Reason and Comments of the deleted event are retained by the selected event.
Note: The Delete Before command is disabled if the selected event cannot be edited or if it is the last event that can be edited.
