| Scheduling is a module
that provides in depth scheduling capability to
users of ON-AIR Pro. By browsing to a particular
date you can build a daily session scheduled manually
or automatically from an unlimited number of user-defined
templates (Fig.
3.1).
A further level of detail is available where
the scheduling user can select actual promos from
the PROMOS module and add them to the workload
for a given session (Fig.
3.2). This closes the loop on production tracking
because ON-AIR Pro can then use these scheduled
promos to build automatic assignment sheets for
each individual producer.
Simple online assignments are generated, eliminating
the need for excessive paper printing of weekly
or daily assignments. Producers and editors hours
can also be tracked on a per project basis (Fig.
3.3), a function used to calculate job costing.
This integrated scheduler can be used for both
in-house and off-site facilities scheduling. |
