      Seed Manager Scheduling Tool Overview: Step-by-Step Guide

      1. Access the Scheduling Tool

        • Navigate to the Seed Manager interface.

        • Identify the area where you want to schedule media: Media Library, Media Playlists, or Channel.

      2. Scheduling a Single Media Item

        • Go to the Media Library.

        • Select the desired media asset.

        • Click on the "Schedule" option.

        • Set the desired start and end times for the media asset.

        • Click "Save" to confirm the schedule.

      3. Scheduling a Media Playlist

        • Access the Media Playlists section.

        • Select the playlist you wish to schedule.

        • Click on the "Schedule" option.

        • Choose whether to schedule individual media assets or the entire playlist.

        • Adjust the scheduling parameters (e.g., all day, specific time, recurring options).

        • Click "Save" to finalize the scheduling.

      4. Setting Recurring Schedules

        • For weekly schedules, select the desired day(s) and check the "recurring" option.

        • For daily schedules, specify the time frame (e.g., 4 PM to 6 PM) and select "recurring daily."

        • For specific date ranges (e.g., for a special event), set the start and end dates accordingly.

      5. Review Scheduled Items

        • Navigate to the Channel section.

        • Access "General Media" to view all scheduled playlists.

        • Confirm that the schedules are set correctly and note the expiration dates.

      6. Final Confirmation

        • Ensure all schedules are saved and check for any conflicts or errors.

        • Document any changes made for future reference.

      Cautionary Notes

      • Always double-check the start and end times to avoid scheduling conflicts.

      • Be mindful of the expiration dates; once a playlist expires, it will no longer be visible in the channel.

      • Regularly review scheduled playlists to ensure they align with current marketing strategies or events.

      Tips for Efficiency

      • Utilize the recurring options to save time when scheduling regular events (e.g., weekly promotions).

      • Keep a calendar or spreadsheet of scheduled playlists to quickly reference upcoming media and avoid overlaps.

      • Familiarize yourself with the Seed Manager interface to navigate quickly and efficiently.

      • Consider scheduling items well in advance to allow for any necessary adjustments before the start date.
