Edit Task: NonRecurringPeriodicWindows
Description
The NonRecurringPeriodicWindows attribute under EditTask defines a user-set amount of periodic windows for the task. This attribute may only be used if the RecurringType attribute is set to SingleInstance. Overlapping availabilities are merged into a single availability with the earliest start time and latest stop time for non-recurring periodic windows. Any previous periodic windows are deleted. For more information on parameters, see the description of the Periodic Window Definition Form.
