Setting the training date override [Staff Management]

Use the Training Date Override dialog to temporarily override your computer’s system date for Staff Management module training. The date you select is the date that DT Practice will use instead of your computer’s system date to determine whether schedule items are due, past due, and so on, in the following areas of DT Practice:
  • Schedule and Schedule Items tabs of the Manage Staff screen
  • Schedule portlet on the Staff Dashboard
  • Scheduling tab in the Project and Task dialogs
  • Staff Schedule Summary report
