This can be achieved, as has been shown by you and by Bastien, using
special user-defined commands.
Another option, maybe simpler, is to use the local options in agenda
custom commands to insert a function into `org-agenda-skip-function'.
For example, I can write this function:
(defun org-agenda-skip-if-scheduled ()
"Function that can be used in `org-agenda-skip-function',
to skip entries that have been scheduled."
(let (beg end)
(org-back-to-heading t)
(setq beg (point)) ; beginning of headline
(outline-next-heading)
(setq end (point)) ; end of entry below heading
(goto-char beg)
(if (re-search-forward org-scheduled-time-regexp end t)
end ; skip, and continue search after END
nil ; Don't skip, use this entry.
)))
and then define a custom command like this:
(setq org-agenda-custom-commands
'(("b" tags "@SHOP"
((org-agenda-skip-function org-agenda-skip-if-scheduled)))))
org-agenda-skip-function should *never* be set with `setq' or so,
but you can use the options field in custom commands to temporarily
assign a value.
The next version will have two functions,
org-agenda-skip-if-scheduled and
org-agenda-skip-if-scheduled-or-deadline
built-in, so it will be easier to find entries that have no deadline
and/or
have not been scheduled. For your specific application, I guess you
also have to look at the timestamp and see if it is in the future.
Having seen your other lisp code, I guess you can do this yourself.
Hope this helps.
