I ended up going back a year reading all the sched papers sent out to figure it out, could NOT figure out why it wouldn't let me enter it!
Good luck.
NOW what you have to think of is are you going to check the "Else Start Next" on it? If you CAN'T slide your vacation, you may want to have another bid group to ask for trips with vacation as is... if you CAN slide it, you may want different things. At least, in my case, a 2 day slide would make a big difference in what I ask for as it puts me close to Thanksgiving and the delicate dance there to get the days off.
see PBS notepad 12-02 "New Features for May 12" for info. You also have to make the range NOT INCLUDE "0", which is the same day. So you can slide 1-3, or exactly 3, but NOT -1 (day prior) to 3. And you can't slide over any other existing event or any portion into another month.
I slid mine 6 days in October. Worked beautifully. Make sure you get the '-' symbol in there if you want to move it earlier in the month. -6 slid mine up 6 days. Good luck
