is to take place on a regular basis, such as
'three times a day' or 'once every two days'.
A DAY OF THE WEEK schedule is one in which the
action is to take place only on specific days of
the week. This type of schedule should have admin
times entered with it. If not, the start time of
the order is used as the admin time. Whenever
this type is chosen, the name of the schedule must
be in the form of 'MO-WE-FR'.
A ONE-TIME schedule is one in which the action
is to take place once only at a specific date and
