Managing Your Schedules

Schedule Statuses

Active

• The schedule currently driving the calendar.
• Only one Active schedule per child (though one schedule can cover multiple children).

Standby

• Draft or alternative schedules ready to go.
• Not visible on the main calendar.
• Use these to plan future changes or keep backups.

Archived

• Old schedules you no longer use but want to keep for records.

Schedule Actions

On the Custody Schedules page, click any schedule card to see options:

Activate

• Make a Standby schedule live.
• You'll choose the Activation Date.
• Current active schedules involving these children will be moved to Standby automatically.

Move to Standby

• Deactivate a running schedule without deleting it.
• Useful if you're switching to a temporary manual plan or resetting.

Archive

• Move old schedules out of view.
• You can add an optional Archive Reason (e.g., "Switched to summer plan") for your records.
• Archived schedules can be restored later if needed.

Delete

• Permanently remove Draft/Standby schedules that were never active.
