Depends on exactly what you’re trying to do.

if I create a dummy user scheduled and i´m ask for the schedule of this user i can get the info desired.

`user ` `=` `system.user.getUser("` `", "` `oper1")`

`if` `system.user.isUserScheduled(user):`

` ` `print` `"oper1 is scheduled"`

`else` `:`

` ` `print` `"oper1 is not scheduled"`
