There are two schedule screens, and they do different jobs.

Setting up: Settings → Schedule

Three steps, in order.

Step 1 · First and last day

The range everything else is built inside. Set the first day and the last day of the class.

Step 2 · Which days it meets

The weekly pattern. See Recurring patterns.

Step 3 · Build the class dates

Turns steps 1 and 2 into real dates. If the class has no dates yet, you get one button: Build 30 class dates (or however many the pattern makes). If it already has dates, a banner tells you whether they still match the pattern:
  • Green — the calendar matches. Nothing to do.
  • Yellow — the pattern would make a different number of dates than the calendar has. Rebuild to bring them in line, or leave them alone if you changed the calendar on purpose.

Rebuilding

Rebuilding replaces every class date, and it cannot be undone.Before you confirm, the screen counts exactly what would be deleted with them:
  • Attendance records
  • Instructor hour entries — these feed instructor pay
  • Student feedback surveys
  • Lesson plans attached to a date
  • Per-date instructor assignments
  • Dates you added by hand — the pattern will not recreate these
  • Cancelled dates come back as normal classes
Read that list before you click.
Most of the time you do not need to rebuild. If one date moved, edit that one date instead.

Day to day: the Schedule tab

The Schedule tab shows the calendar of real class dates. Click any date to work with it.
  • Manage session — change the title, date, time, location, or type; add notes; cancel the date; record what was taught; attach lessons; and see the history of changes.
  • Take attendance — mark each student Present, Late, Absent, or Excused.
Instructors use this tab. They never see Settings.

Which one do I want?

If you move the class dates

Moving a class’s start date also moves any access codes that were scheduled to go out relative to the start. The platform re-dates them for you and tells you how many moved. See When students get access.
