Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.
Words and Phrases
| Search for | Example | Results |
|---|---|---|
| A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
|
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |
Using Boolean Operators
| Search for | Operator | Example |
|---|---|---|
|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
| Either word in a topic |
|
|
| Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
| Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse
|
| A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

Submit a time period for replanning
Once a time period is published, its rules and occurrences become read-only. You can only manually cancel an individual rule. If you need to update the rules or occurrences, you can submit it for replanning. Doing so returns the time period back to the planning phase.
To submit a time period for re-planning, follow these steps:
- Navigate to Time Period Management > Search Time Periods, to open the time period record.
-
Click Submit for Replanning.
Note
- Existing rules are read-only if the Lock Rules once approved global setting is enabled, and therefore you can no longer update them, but you can still deactivate/activate them using the Deactivate Rule or Activate Rule button that appears on the top of the rule detail form; if Lock Rules once approved is disabled (set to false), you can still update existing rules.
- Deactivating a rule will trigger the deletion of all future occurrences based on the rule; activating a rule triggers the creation of the occurrences as of today.
- The system will display a warning message if any existing changes conflict with the submitted time period.
