Schedule customization

Laura 8 years ago updated by Benjamin S. (Answers in Genesis - Web Support Analyst) 7 months ago 4

We have a 25 min. opening ceremony, so it ends at 9:25, but the schedule generated doesn't start the first "station" time till 9:51. What drives that schedule? We only account for a 5 minute transition time between stations, so we should start at 9:30, have a 20 minute "station" and repeat. Can I do anything to "fix" it?

The generated schedule doesn't account for transition time. I set your opening session to be 30 minutes. (25 minutes + 5 minutes to transition) I believe that makes the schedule timing work out as you expected.


BTW: We are looking into reworking how the schedule timing is handled to try to make things less confusing.

Is there any plan to allow for the user to customize the schedule? I really want to use the VBS Digital, but would like to be able to customize a few things: one major thing is the schedule. Please advise, Thanks!

To give you context, we have 3 times in our schedule where ALL participants and volunteers are together: Opening & Closing Assemblies and Snack (between the 2nd & 3rd rotations), where we show the Drama to the kids. The schedule in VBS Digital does not allow for me to include this type of modification, and it would be lovely if it did!

Hello,

Our developers plan to release a new rotation schedule design here in the near future that will have the customization based off the customer feedback we received! :)
