Scheduling software can be challenging to master for various reasons. When installed, none offer optimal settings, and templates, views, and default options require customization to achieve peak performance. Often, help files fail to connect users to real-life scenarios and fail to explain the practical applications of functions. Furthermore, the software is adorned with numerous flicks and switches with enigmatic names, making it difficult to comprehend their purpose or determine their significance. These complexities make learning the software exceedingly difficult without a comprehensive guide authored by an experienced user. By investing in a book by Paul E. Harris, these issues can be addressed effectively, enabling users to set up the software correctly and comprehend all the obscure functions, thereby accelerating their productivity and enhancing their career prospects and salary through a solid understanding of the software.
