Once selected, the Times pane will display the time frame of the Day part. If no Day part is selected, Ad Manager will display the Times as 24-hour.

The times will display in the Times frame as they are added. As well they will be represented in the visual time editor at the bottom of the window (need screen shot). NOTE: If the Times in the frame above the visual time editor are adjacent to each other, it will display as one bar for the entire time. NOTE: Ad Manager uses a 24-hour clock when entering time and periods of time must be entered accordingly. For example, if the time period is to be from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., it will be entered as 11:00 to 17:00. To remove periods of time, click on the red - symbol and enter the time(s). The revised times till display in the Times frame and will be represented in the visual time editor at the bottom of the window (need screen shot) To edit the times entered for a period, select it and click the <Edit Time> button (need screen shot). In the Edit time window, make the modifications and click <OK>. (need screen shot) To delete a time period, select it in the list, and click the <Delete> button at the top right of the frame. Again, the visual time editor will display the deletion at the bottom of the screen
The visual time editor at the bottom of the Subcontract (Digital) page can also be used to edit the time periods. NOTE: It displays the time in 15-minute intervals and for a 24-hour period.
The frame to the right of the Times frame is used to identify which days of the week the Spots on this Subcontract (Digital) are to play. The default in Ad Manager is that the Spots will run all days of the week. (need screen shot) If the Spots are to play only on certain days of the week, uncheck the box beside the days that they will NOT play. (need screen shot)
NOTE: The data entered on the Details page is viewed by Ad Manager to be the "default" for this particular Subcontract (Digital). Users can still modify times/days on any Reservation as required. NOTE: If data is modified to the Times/Days after Reservations have been scheduled to the Subcontract (Digital) it will not affect those Reservations already existing. It will only apply to any new ones added after the data has been modified.
