Schedule Builder is a tool in the Field Schedule that helps you create weekly recurring placeholder practice events for multiple teams at once. These placeholders include key details such as program, teams, practice length, and RSVP settings, but they do not have dates, times, or locations yet.
After you create them, the placeholder events appear in the Alerts section of the Field Schedule, where you can drag and drop them into specific dates, times, and fields.
