Move an offer to another day from the calendar

Open the schedule in Calendar and choose a new day under Move start to. The start and end dates move together, and the time of day stays the same.

Steps​

Path: Calendar > the schedule's day > Move start to

  1. Click Calendar in the menu on the left. On your phone, tap Calendar in the tab bar at the bottom.
  2. Click the schedule's bar on its start day. The panel for that day opens, with the schedule card open in it.
  3. If the card is closed, click the schedule name to open it.
  4. Under Move start to, click the date and choose the new day. Next to it you see "End date moves with it".
An open schedule card in the day panel, with the Move start to date field under it and "End date moves with it" next to it.
An open schedule card in the day panel, with the Move start to date field under it and "End date moves with it" next to it.
  1. The message "Moved to …" appears with the new date, and the panel jumps to that day.
  2. To go back to the earlier date, click Undo in the same message before it disappears.

Result​

  • Only the start day changes. The start time stays as you set it.
  • If the schedule has an end date, it moves by the same number of days and keeps the same time. The length of the offer does not change.
  • Nothing changes in your store now. The offer starts on the new date.
  • A Paused schedule stays paused after the move. Click Activate to run it on its new date.
  • The move appears in the Activity log: "Moved «…» from … to …".

Rules​

  • You can move only a one-time schedule with the Scheduled or Paused status. The field does not appear for a repeating schedule.
  • You cannot move an offer that has started. If the status is Offer Active or Running, the field does not appear.
  • You cannot move to a day that has passed, or to today if the start time has passed.
  • A schedule that starts Now cannot be moved from Calendar, because it has no start day.
  • To change the start time or any other setting, click Edit on the same card, as in Edit a saved schedule: change the time, value or products.
  • PopAutomate does not check the other schedules on the new day. If the card has a line that starts with "touches", two schedules change the same products on the same day. Click "What happens when they overlap?", or read Two schedules on the same products: what happens?.
  • If you linked the schedule to a discount permit, PopAutomate does not check that the new date falls inside the permit's dates. Check the permit's dates under Permits, as in Ministry of Commerce discount permit: save and link it.

If it did not work​

  • You do not see Move start to on the card? The schedule repeats, or its status is not Scheduled or Paused. To see its status, read Status guide: what schedule and run statuses mean.
  • You see "That day has passed. Pick a future day."? Choose a day after today, or a day when the start time has not passed yet.
  • You see "We couldn't move the schedule."? The run may have started, or the status may have changed. Reload the page, check the status, then try again.
  • The offer started at a different hour than you expected? Read A discount started or ended at the wrong time.
