Enable beta features

Access new features in Skedulo before they are fully released. Changes and instability should be expected.

Overview

Admins can enable beta features for testing within their organization.

Beta features

In this section the following settings can be configured:

The default value is OFF.

Enable automatic resource notifications when jobs are canceled

Controls whether automatic notifications are sent to resources when jobs are canceled.

Note: Requires an API user to have been defined.

Also, see how to cancel or reschedule a job.

The default value is OFF.

Enable automatic resource notifications when shifts are published, changed or canceled

When enabled, a notification is shown every time an availability request is received from a resource.

Enable job dependencies

If enabled, schedulers can create relationships between two or more items of work where one job is dependent upon the completion of another job or multiple jobs.
