Access to Smart Scheduler works the same as access to Cisco TMS; users must have one of the following:

A Cisco TMS user will be created for them when they access the site if it does not already exist.
Note that the actual booking is not created directly by the individual user, but on their behalf by the Cisco TMSPE
service user added during installation. Booking permissions for individual systems will therefore be the same for all

the date and time settings in the User Portal, Account Settings > Locale. Note that as the detection works for time
