You can create a style span to specify the color for different events in a change
schedule. Style spans in a schedule help to quickly identify characteristics of a change based on
a field value from the Change Request.

Change Schedules includes several base styles to ensure every schedule has span styles to begin
with. By default, Blackout Schedules are represented by a gray color, Maintenance schedules are
represented by a light blue color and change requests are represented by either red (risk =
High), orange (risk = moderate), or green (risk = low).

To define style rules, you must activate Change Management - Change Schedule plugin
(com.snc.change_management.soc).  
You can define styles in multiple ways, such as from the Default Style Rules, Change Schedule definitions, or from the Span Style window in the Change Schedule timeline.  
Hinweis:  
All style rule tables extend the Style Rule Core table \[chg_soc_style_rule_core\].
