Note that unlike AX schedule special events (which “intermingle” with weekly events), R2 schedule special events replace the normal weekly schedule. As shown in below, schedule events that are written to the R2 Schedule from the AX master appear in the “Special Events” tab of the JDE Schedule Editor view, in a block of around four weeks. Each has a “weekday” name (monday, tuesday, monday2, tuesday2, etc.) seen at the top of the tab.

As a contingency measure, you may consider creating additional Schedule objects in the R2 station, along with any necessary additional logic, to provide scheduling control in the case that communications with the AX master station are lost for long periods. Or, continue to maintain the weekly schedule portion of these Schedule objects, because this is not affected by any schedule downloads from the AX Supervisor.
