Schedule Model (Infotype 1042) (SAP Library - Training Management in the SAP Learning Solution)

Schedule Model (Infotype 1042)

Definition

This infotype lets you record a schedule model, that is, the timetable for a course type.

Use

The data in the Schedule Model infotype is used:

To display the course duration in the course brochure

To display the schedule model in the course menu

As a template for the schedule when you plan or create a course.

Structure

You can define a schedule model in various ways:

You can create a schedule model with pattern. To do this, you must first complete the step Defining a Time Schedule in Customizing for Training Management under Course Preparation.

A time schedule consists of:

A day number

One or more day schedules

A time block (consisting of a maximum of three time intervals) per day schedule

Note

The system automatically calculates the total course duration in both days and hours.

You can create a schedule without a pattern^. In this case, you must enter the (total) duration in days and the (total) duration in hours yourself.

Note

When you plan or create a course, a generalized scheduleis generated from a schedule model created without a pattern.

You can create a user-defined schedule. In this case, you enter the day number and select a time block.

You can specify whether the course should consist of one date or several dates. Several dates means that the schedule recurs multiple times at specified intervals.

You can select a start day, that is, a particular day of the week as the start day. Otherwise, the start day is undefined.

You can use subtypes to divide the schedule model into different schedule models.

The following subtypes have already been set up in the SAP R/3 Standard System:

Subtype 0001: main schedule

Subtype 0002: alternative schedule

Subtype 0003: temporary schedule

In Customizing, you can set up further schedule models as subtypes.

Infotype maintenance

You append this infotype to course types when you create or change a course type in Customizing for Training Management under Course Preparation or in Current Settings under Create Course Type.
