Tapscan displays a message reminding you that you will be replacing the contents of the target station(s). If you do not want to overwrite the contents of the selected stations, click Cancel to stop the copy. Otherwise, click OK to continue.

Tapscan copies the contents of the source station to all selected station(s), including:

• All Flights along with their Flight names and dates

• Daypart rows

• Spots and Spot placements

• Other values such as Rates, Notes, Length

• Row toggle state

The following values are reset to default values and may differ from the source station:

• Weight values are set to 100.

• Any manual ratings values are reset and replaced with ratings values for the particular station or combo. The schedule is recalculated based on the Nielsen ratings for each station in combination with the spots and rates provided from the source station.

• Daypart codes and Daypart Titles may be reset if the original station included assigned custom daypart codes that are not applicable for the target stations.

7. Click Save Save in the toolbar to keep your changes.
