Deadline Monitoring according to a schedule.

[Roehlen, Peter]

Hi Dan,
 
We (Powercor) posted a similar question some time ago to this list.  In our
case, we wanted to know if the deadline of say 3 days could be 3 working
days (ie exclude weekends, public holidays etc.)
 
The consensus from the group at the time seemed to be that the only way to
do it was to have a business object type method calculate the target
date/time which it exports to containers in your workflow and then reference
these containers in your deadline settings.
 
I hope this helps.

I have setup deadline monitoring to give the user 3 hours before the
deadline
is reached.
By this I mean 3 working hours.  If they receive an item late in the
afternoon, it should not time-out until the middle of the next morning.
 
Does anyone know of a way to do deadline monitoring according to some
pre-set
schedule (for example a workcenter schedule?).
