\\
Next, click on the //New Group// button and give it a name, for example you may want to create a template for all your 'Heat Press' jobs:

\\
{{ :production:scheduling:selection_008.jpg?direct |}}

\\
All your departments will be listed on the left. Select one and click on the ''>'' (//send right//) button to add it to the list on the right

Don't forget to ''Save''

==== Using Scheduling Templates ====

When you add a schedule from a template, FastManager simply creates a task for each of the listed departments.

  * Open the Task Editor screen from the ''Tasks button'' at the top of the Sales Screen, or from the ''%%Tasks%%'' tab on the Job Board

\\

\\
  * Then click on the ''Add from template'' button and FastManager will display a popup menu with all your available templates:

\\
{{ :production:scheduling:selection_006.jpg?direct |}}

\\
  * Select the template you want to use and FastManager will add tasks for all the departments from that template in only one click.

<note>You need to assign a date to each task. Or you can click on ''Re-Schedule'' to have FastManager automatically select the defaults for each department.</note>
