# Schedule

# Schedule (stripboard)

The **schedule** is your shooting plan: a **stripboard** of scene strips, **day breaks** for shoot days, and times (call, prep, shoot). It drives call sheets, DPR, Day Bible, and production reports.

**Production** dropdown → **Schedule**. If the project has no schedule, you may see **Create a Schedule** or a "Working Schedule" may be created when the script is parsed.

When the script is parsed again (re-import or refresh), strips you already placed keep their day, order, and times when the scene still matches. If a previously scheduled scene no longer exists in the new revision, that old strip row is removed. New scenes from the script are added at the end of the stripboard on a **new** shoot day so you can organize them without mixing them into days you already set up. Bootstrap `UNKNOWN` pre-scene rows are not auto-added back if you removed them. This applies to **every** schedule on the project (approved or working), including stripboards that were empty before the parse. If strips ever look out of sync with the script, use **Restore scenes from script** on the stripboard.

When you open the schedule again after editing the script or using another part of the project, the stripboard reapplies **Filter** and **Search Strips** to the list so scene rows are not left hidden while **All Days** is selected.

* **Stripboard and shoot days:** Add day breaks, reorder strips, set times (with suggestions and recalculate), split scenes, reset times, and choose which stripboard fields are visible. See [Stripboard and shoot days](/stripboard-and-days). If you see a message about a strip count mismatch after dragging, reload the schedule page so the stripboard matches the server, then try again. Removing the **last** day break on the stripboard (the one below the final scenes) merges those scenes into the **previous** shoot day so the break does not come back on refresh.
* **Day Out of Days (DOOD):** Cast availability by day, auto-built from the stripboard. Drives the Cast / schedule card on the budget and the **Use DOOD days** button on cast line items. See [Day Out of Days (DOOD)](/day-out-of-days).
* **Approving and Boneyard:** Learn when to keep a schedule **Working** versus when to mark it **Approved** for call sheets and reports. Archive old schedules in **Boneyard**. See [Approving a schedule and Boneyard](/approving-and-boneyard).

The schedule sidebar (left of the stripboard) lists each day with **Call**, **Day Bible**, DPR (Company), and **Day Sides**. Use **Day Bible** per day to open that day's board; see [Boards and cards](/boards-and-cards).
