Scheduling Applications Usage

The Application Schedule panel of the Policy Edition window is responsible for configuring the schedule in which the user of the computer where this policy will be applied can use the applications.



Fields and Commands

Application Schedule

In this field, select which time of day and days of the week the policy will be applied.

When a time of day is checked, it indicates that the policy will be active at that time. If it is unchecked, it indicates that the policy will be inactive at that time.

For example, if you configured, through the Application menu, the blocking of the “Firefox” application and you checked all fields in this calendar, the user of the computer where this policy will be applied will not be able to access the “Firefox” application at any time of the day on any day of the week when this policy is active.

If you want to allow the user of the computer where this policy will be applied to access the “Firefox” application on Sunday at 12:00 PM, you must check the corresponding schedule in the calendar.

The user of the computer will be able to access the “Firefox” application, from 12:00 PM to 01:00 PM on Sunday, and will not be able to access the same application at any other time of day on any other days of the week.

Select All

When this field is checked, all fields in the calendar of the Application Schedule field will be selected. When this field is unchecked, the selection of all fields in the calendar of the Application Schedule field will be removed.

Help

This button displays the Help window where you can navigate through the PolicyControl help topics.

OK

When this button is pressed, it saves the changes made to the applications schedule of the applications blocking.

Cancel

Closes the Policy Edition window and returns to the Policy Configuration window. If there are changes made to the Applications Schedule that were not saved by the OK button, these changes will be discarded.
