Change validity period for work permits

Change validity period

In the Work Permit library, you can select one or several permits and move the start date.

Moving the validity period of work permits

You can move the validity period of a single work permit or multiple work permits by pushing the start time forward in time.

Plot plan icon for moved work permits

Work permits that have been plotted and had their validity time moved will display an orange icon on the plot plan—until the status of the work permit changes.

Change validity period for multiple work permits

1. In the Work Permit Library, select the work permits by selecting the check boxes to the left.

   

2. Click the Options menu in the upper right corner. Select Move validity period.

   

   The Move validity period on work permits dialog box appears.

3. On the dialog box, use the slidebar to move the validity period by a given number of hours, or use the date picker to change the validity period by a given number of days.

   All the selected permits will be moved the same number of days/hours and the permit with the earliest start period and new calculated earliest start period is shown in the two upper fields.

   

4. Click Move.

   If anything prevents one or more of the permits from having their validity period changed, a message box displays with a description of the reason.
