The Schedule Tab appears for Programs only. Here is where you will create the courses that will be displayed on the calendar to your staff and to customers.
See Videos below for a quick walkthrough of the schedule spoke for fixed and recurring rules and composite rules

Schedule Tab
Fixed
Use this option to create single, non-repeating course instances. These can include one or more sessions, but the course itself occurs only once and appears as a single entry on the calendar.
How to Add a Fixed Course Instance:
-
Double-click on the calendar to quickly add a fixed instance.
Alternatively, click the + next to Fixed Date Rules in the left sidebar and select the date needed.-
A 60-minute session will be created by default. You can set this plan's default session duration on the Options tab below
-
-
Use the left sidebar to add additional sessions if needed (ie, make this a 2 session course). Click the + to the right of the fixed date rules time. Use the pencil icons to edit date and time.
Adding Multiple Sessions Toggle
This adds additional course times that same day at the start time interval defined here - it does not add sessions to your fixed date course. It is only shown when you first click the plus to the right of the date.
To add sessions to a course (ie, make a summer camp that meets 5 days, add session to the time as shown above using the offset days field shown above.
Once a course is created as a fixed instance, it cannot be changed to a recurring/multi-date format. To add more sessions, simply add additional sessions to the same date.
Recurring
Set up your recurring course schedule here. If needed, the schedule can be set to repeat indefinitely.
-
Under the Options tab, you’ll define how far into the future the schedule appears on both the staff-facing and customer-facing calendars.
-
In the Booking Periods section, you can control how far in advance customers are allowed to book the course.

Default Staffing Tab (Assign Instructor)
To assign Instructors to a course there are a number of heirarchical options.
1. Default for ALL sessions
Set the default instructor for ALL dates and times on the Default Staffing tab.
2. Default for certain sessions
You can override, or set default staffing as well on the schedule building level.
Edit the Day/Date rule OR the Time OR session rule, and a default instructor can be added at any level.
When enabled, these settings will override any staff set on the Default Staffing tab.
3. Set by specific session at the Calendar module level
You can also add staffing to specific sessions from the Calendar Module. This will override any default settings set in the Default Staffing Tab or the Schedule tab above.
Open the session and Edit Course. Add staff on the Staffing Tab.
At each of these levels, if the toggle at that assignment level is enabled, that assignment will be used even if no staff is assigned there. So if you have Default staffing set at the Default Staffing tab level and then toggle on to enable at the schedule level, the schedule level will display even if no staff person is assigned there.
Options Tab
The Options tab lets you customize key settings for your course calendar:
-
Generate Days Ahead: Choose how many days in advance the calendar should be generated.
-
Default Session Duration: Set the standard duration for each session.
-
Course Display Toggle: If you offer many courses daily, you can enable the option to display only courses with active contracts to simplify the view.
