11.0F Release

If you're part of the Preferred Client Program, you can download the latest desktop version in the Client Portal.

PDS Facility Scheduler 11.0F, released for desktop 6-13-23 and OnDemand 6-22-23, offers the following enhancements.

New and Improved Features

Easy Access to Setup Options
  • Some of the Initial Setup options are "set-it-and-forget-it". But other options may need to change over time. Instead of having to remember where that option was when you first set up your program, we provided an easier way to change it -- right from the relevant window!

  • In all data entry windows (Calendars, Events, Facilities, and so on), you can click the gear icon black gear with a hole in the middle to view and access all the setup options related to the information in that window. When you hover over each item, a hint shows details about the options you can choose from. (Note that the gear icons on listing screens and overviews only display options related to their functionality.)

  • For example, let's say you want to add another feature for facilities. You can go to the Facilities window, click the gear icon in the top-right corner, and select Facility Features. A dialog box displays where you can define the new feature.

Show Keyword Counts
  • Ever wondered which keywords are actually used in your data? Now, you can see the count for each keyword, which shows the number of records that use it. In any keyword list, click Show Count to display the Count column. You might use this number, for example, to determine whether you should keep or delete a particular keyword.

Help Center - New Look & Enhancements
  • The Help Center (what you're reading now) is getting a new look! All the same help articles you need will still be available at help.acst.com, and you can still click the help icon in PDS to get here.

  • With the new look, we also have new features to enhance your Help Center experience. You can easily navigate between solutions, stay up-to-date on what's new, and find useful links to training, support, and more. Keep an eye out for those changes coming July 12!
