Item Plugin SkillBuilders Schedule

SkillBuilders Schedule

Categories: Item Plugin
Author: Dan McGhan

Event scheduling made easy!

1. Rich client-side user interface
2. Skinned with jQuery UI themes (currently 25 themes to choose from)
3. Custom time pickers
4. jQuery UI date pickers
5. Support for recurrence: Daily, Weekly, Monthly, and Yearly
6. Single APEX item to table column mapping
7. PL/SQL Package API to work with values stored

Event scheduling is a common task that developers repeatedly face when creating applications. The types of events can vary greatly as can their configuration options. Some events are simple, occurring only once while others are more complex and can repeat indefinitely.

Developers may choose to save time by supporting only the types of schedules that the requirements dictate. This often results in “one-off” configurations with custom logic that cannot be reused very easily. The SkillBuilders Schedule item plug-in was designed to greatly simplify and standardize event scheduling in APEX applications.

The SkillBuilders Schedule item plug-in supports single occurrence events as well as those that recur daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly. Its options can easily be customized via a declarative interface to meet specific requirements and its UI has been skinned using jQuery UI themes so customizing the look and feel to match your APEX theme is as simple as changing one word in the item’s configuration settings.

Anyone that has worked with events in the past is aware that it all comes down to dates. To that end, the SkillBuilders Schedule item plug-in comes with a PL/SQL package based API that can be used for various functionality – even getting the dates over which an event will occur.

Plugin feature not working
by Alejandro Vizcaino
on March 29, 2012
Hi Dan,

I downloaded the plugin like 6 months ago and we have been using it successfully. However, starting with the events created in 2012, the schedule is not working when I select the option "Day of the Month" for a monthly schedule. When I apply the schedule it changes to the "last day" and in the table it shows BYMONTHDAY=-1. I can even see the same problem in the demo for events created in 2012.

Appreciate your review.

Thanks,
Alejandro.

Event not showing on demo site
by Dan McGhan

Jeff,

The last note at the top reads: Click on the calendar summary to view the event in the calendar.

This has confused a few people in the past so I'll look into a different way of doing that.

Also, keep in mind that this is still an early adopters release. I recently found a bug that kept the plug-in from working right with a date format that uses a 2 digit year. I'll get a fix out ASAP.

Regards,
Dan

Event no showing on demo site
by Jeff Ritschel

I'm looking at using this plug-in for an application I am building, but the demo site is not showing any events that I create. My event is "Board Meeting" and it is scheduled for every Thursday in February, but I don't see it on the calendar. Any suggestions?
