Edit Task: Preference
Description
The Preference attribute under EditTask defines the given scheduling preference for a task. For a task with non-overlapping timeslots, this will change the desirability of each timeslot (i.e. when 'Middle' is set, timeslots closer to the middle of the schedule will be more desirable).
Parameters
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|

| ExactDate | "YYYY/MM/DD_HH:MM:SS". Only used if ScheduleExact is also used. |
