Link sample plan frequencies to a sample plan

A sample plan frequency can be linked to a sample plan. Only one sample plan frequency of a given type may be linked to the sample plan, except for data change events, multiple data change events may be linked to the same sample plan.

You can add single frequencies for shift time, calendar time, entity run time, and entity production. You can add multiple frequencies for data change events to a sample plan as long as the data change events are for different events.

The Frequencies tab shows a list of all the sample plan frequencies linked to the selected sample plan.
