We help via email or chat. To help you reduce your purchase costs of our software we do not include any live one on one training in the price. Live training is a separate service that you can purchase only when you need it. All training is tailored just for you and is not a group session shared with other companies.

The 1 hour of online live training is our most popular option and enough to cover many questions and details which can then be followed up with additional hours if required.

You can purchase training directly from our website and we will then contact you to arrange the best date and time. To purchase or see the latests prices click here.

Batch select, update and edit multiple events at once

22 August 2019, 16:25

Using the **List View** you can use the checkboxes on the right to select multiple events to edit at once. You can also use the CTRL key, or click the first event and press **Select multiple**, in other views to manually pick many events to edit at once.


The video below shows 3 methods of creating and selecting a set of events to allow batch updating. You can select an existing set all at once, or using CTRL or the Select Multi... menu option you can manually choose any collection of events to work with.

Once your selection is complete you can choose to Edit, Copy, Delete or use drag and drop to move the selected events.

Reports are simple documents where you can control the layout/look of any data which is reported on. You use Filters to control the data in your reports, and the report is just how the data layout. Tags are inserted into the report, which are replaced with real data once the report is run, and all the available tags you can insert are shown at the bottom of the report editor when you are editing a report. You can edit reports from your Account Settings page, then press Edit Reports.

Reports can be complex and include a large a number of events or just a simple worksheet form with information taken from a single event. Below is an example of a list of events with some summery information.

Editing Reports

It is recommended you start with a sample that closely matches the layout you need then it can be copied and modified to fit your needs, rather than starting from an empty page and building the report from new.

Report Sections

You can style the page as you need but the data is built on 2 main sections and the tags are only used in these sections:

1, The ResourceLoop section can only be included once per report and will be repeated for each Resource being reported on, or selected in your Resource filter. Tags in this section generally start with SI-R (a Schedule it resource). Reports can just include this section if no event data is need, for example this report will create list of resources with their name and email address. This is a Resource Only report.

{{ResourceLoop}}
{{SI-R-Name}}, {{SI-R-EmailAdd}}
{{ResourceLoopEnd}}


2, The EventLoop section can only be included once per report and will be repeated for each Event being reported on, or selected in your Event filter. Tags in this section generally start with SI-E (a Schedule it event). Reports can just include this section if no resource data is need, for example this report will create a list of events with their title and start date. This is an Events Only report.

{{EventLoop}}
{{SI-E-Title}}, {{SI-E-DateStart}}
{{EventLoopEnd}}



It is possible to join these 2 main section and have a report that list resources with some details, and includes the events for that resource. In this example the report will have a section for each resource and under the resource name will be a list of all events tagged to that resource, below the list of a events will be a total of all the events hours. This is a Resource and Event report.


{{ResourceLoop}}
{{SI-R-Name}}
{{EventLoop}}
{{SI-E-Title}}, {{SI-E-DateStart}}
{{EventLoopEnd}}
SI-R-TotalResourceHours}}
{{ResourceLoopEnd}}

Report Editing

Our editor allows you to change the style and layout of your report templates just like a standard text document. To add extra data fields, set your cursor position where you want to add it, then pick from the list of available data fields shown at the bottom of the editor, then press Insert to insert the select data tag at your cursor position.

All Resource tags must be in-between the text {{SI-Resourceloop}} and {{SI-ResourceloopEnd}}. All Event tags must be in-between the text {{SI-Eventloop}} and {{SI-EventloopEnd}}.

---

Report Filters

When running any report the filter you have applied in your current view will be used. If you Save a filter, you can also have this automatically selected when you run the report. For example you could have a filter that only shows Holiday events for 2019 and a report layout with just the information needed for your Holiday reporting, selecting this Holiday report will auto select the Holiday filter. This allows you to fully customize the data shown in each report down to a subset of resources and events.

To save a filter, choose Search/Filter from the Schedule menu, set your filter criteria, and press Save. The name you give your Filter can then be selected in the report editor for any report.

Report Tags

It is best to use the Report Editor to insert the correct report tags, but they be typed manually if you are aware of the data you need. Only a small subset of these tags are available in email and other custom templates.

Report Formulas

Whilst there are a number of built-in tags to give total hours, number of resources tagged etc, you can include mathematical formulas of your own to calculate values based on your report data. Once the report is created and all tags replaced with your data, then any calculations are run.

Some examples:

To get the events percent completed value as a fraction of 100 rather then a whole percentage you divide the events percentage value by 100. This is the tag to use:

SI-Calc{{{SI-E-Completed}} / 100}

To get the events price in pence/cents you can multiple the price by 100. This is the tag to use:

SI-Calc{{{SI-E-Price}} * 100}

Whole numbers only... (Other math functions round, floor, ceil, cos, sin, tan, scrt, log, abs)

SI-Calc{round({{SI-E-Price}})}


If you are storing the number allowed holidays in a resources details (information box 4) you can use a report (filtered for just Holidays) and show the days remaining. It takes the number found in the resources details field 4 and minuses the total events in the report for that resource. This is the tag to use:

SI-Calc{{{SI-R-Data4}} - {{SI-R-TotalResourceEvents}}}


Calculate a total cost of an event based in its hours duration and any fixed cost value you want to include in your report. This is the tag to use:

SI-Calc{{{SI-E-DurationH}} * 75.50}


Calculate the average number of events per day based on the days being reported on:

SI-Calc{{{SI-TotalReportEvents}}/{{SI-ReportDays}}}



Show the rate/cost of an event based on a resource price(from a resource in group 282) and event duration:

SI-Calc{({{SI-ResLoop}} {{SI-Show(282)}} {{SI-R-Price}} {{SI-ResLoopEnd}} * {{SI-E-DurationH}})curr}


If there are multiple resources in the same group then add each price together...

SI-Calc{({{SI-ResLoop}} {{SI-Show(282)}} {{SI-R-Price}} + {{SI-ResLoopEnd}} 0)curr}


...then add this cost to an internal store...

SI-Calc{store-add(SI-ResLoop}} {{SI-Show(282)}} {{SI-R-Price}} {{SI-ResLoopEnd}} * {{SI-E-DurationH}})}

...then at the end of the resources events show the total, less any event costs/adjustments...

SI-Calc{store-get+{{SI-R-TotalResourceCosts}}}

Pull a cost from a resource and store it:

SI-Calc{store-add({{SI-ResLoop}}{{SI-Show(12345)}} {{SI-R-Price}}{{SI-ResLoopEnd}})}

Total Costs: SI-Calc{(store-get+{{SI-TotalReportEventCosts}})curr}


Clear stored value for new section or resource:

SI-Calc{store-clear}



Return difference between total booked hours and available hours only if the value is more than zero...

SI-Function[if(({{SI-R-TotalResourceHours}}-{{SI-R-AvailableWorkingHours}})>0){({{SI-R-TotalResourceHours}}-{{SI-R-AvailableWorkingHours}})}else{0}]
