Export work patterns

Before deleting work rules, export work patterns from the appropriate root or leaf organizations to identify the work pattern planned for deletion.

If work patterns are linked to the root, and several leaf organizations, you must perform an export from each organization.

Procedure 

  1. Go to Work Administration. Under Work Rules, select Work Patterns.

  2. Select the relevant organization.

  3. Select Export.

  4. On the File Setup screen, select Tab for the Delimiter and select Export.

  5. From the Save drop-down list, select Save as.

  6. Type a name for the file, and open or save it as a text file (for example, WorkPatterns.txt).

    Although you can use Excel to view work pattern exports, it is safer to use a text editor (such as Notepad). Excel might convert the data into the wrong format (for example, integers into dates).

  7. When the system displays a message, stating that the file could be corrupted or unsafe, select Yes to open the file anyway.
