Managing Steering Calendars
Steering calendars are used within the framework of:
• execution campaigns
• action plan reminders
To create and parameterize a steering calendar:
1. In the navigation menu, select Administration > Calendars > Steering Calendars.
2. Click New.
3. In the wizard that appears, select the context in which you want to use the steering calendar:
• Control
• Key Indicator
• Action plan
• Recommendation
4. Connect a Steering Date (which corresponds to the execution frequency of interest).
5. Open the steering date properties dialog box and select the Scheduling tab.
6. Specify the information required for starting the campaign including:
• the time zone to take into account (UTC, user time zone, server time zone)
• the start date of the recurrence

The start date specified on the steering calendar does not correspond to the campaign start date. It simply helps define the interval within which assessment sessions can take place.

It is recommended to use a relative begin date on the steering date.
• start date and time

For details on possible configurations, see the section concerning the scheduler in the technical article "HOPEX Studio".

Select
Execute at start date & time if you wish to launch the campaign execution immediately.
If the check box is deactivated, the scheduler waits for the next recurrent date (and time) to trigger the job.
