Open schedule jobs are jobs that volunteers can sign up for via VSys Live but which do not generate real assignments. Instead they're used for things like "We need an intern" or "Technical help wanted". Use this to recruit skills based volunteers. These jobs can be searched using the job signup tool in VSys Live. Once a volunteer signs up for an open schedule job he gets a job association for the underlying job having the status, location, start date, end date and supervisor you set here.
Note that open schedule jobs aren't capacity controlled, meaning that VSys Live has no idea when you have enough people for one to be filled. That means that you have to go in and mark the open schedule job as Inactive when you've recruited enough people and want it to no longer be available for online signup.
