Create or copy a plan
When you're ready to plan your service and schedule your volunteers, create a new plan. You can start from scratch, use a template if it's a service you do regularly, or copy the plan if it's a unique worship order, like a holiday you've done in the past!
You can create a plan in any service type where you are an editor or administrator.
Create a new plan
Copy an existing plan
If you want to reuse your worship order from a special service (such as Easter), you can create a copy of that plan.
Important
You can only copy a plan when using Services on a web browser.
Select the Plans page in the top navigation.
If you have multiple folders, select the folder with the plan you'd like to copy.
Scroll down to the corresponding service type and select the plan date you'd like to copy. If this plan is too far in the past, select the Upcoming dropdown and choose whether to view past plans from Since 12 months ago or set a Custom date range.
Select the Actions dropdown button in the top right of the plan page.
Choose Export/Copy from the dropdown.
In the Include section, select the checkboxes next to the plan elements you'd like to copy (e.g., items, notes, teams). Teams from this plan will only be copied if those teams and positions also exist in the service type you're copying them to.
Select New Plan from the Export To options.
Select the service type where you'd like to copy this plan.
Select the quantity of plans you'd like to create by copying this plan.
Select a date from the Starting On dropdown.
Select a date to copy times from. The plan you're viewing will automatically be selected, but you can also choose None if you'd like to manually add new times, or choose from another plan date.
Select Submit to go to the new plan page.
Tip
If you copy the same plan often, export it as a template instead so you can apply it when creating new plans!
