Manage Schedule Settings Across Multiple Events
The Schedule Settings page in Cadence allows you to establish consistent schedule configurations across your organization's events. From the Schedule Menu › Settings section, you can configure display formats, enable features like tracks and live polling, and set up check-in methods that can be duplicated to streamline setup for multiple events.
When to use
When standardizing schedule configuration across multiple events
When implementing brand guidelines for schedule presentation
When creating templates for different event types
When streamlining the event creation process
Before you start
You must have System Administrator permissions to configure default Schedule settings at the account level. Required fields are marked with an asterisk (*).
How to do it
Create a template event with your desired schedule settings.
Configure all schedule settings in this template event exactly as you want them applied to other events.
Save your settings by clicking the "Save" button at the bottom of the page.
Document your template event's schedule configurations for future reference and consistency.
Navigate to your account-level settings in the admin interface.
Select "Schedule Settings (Default)" from the menu options.
Configure the default settings that will apply to all new events.
Choose your preferred "Schedule View" from the dropdown (List View or Image List View).
Choose "List View" for events with many schedule items to improve loading speed and readability.
Toggle "Enable Live Polling" to ON if you want this feature available by default.
Toggle "Display People" to control whether people associated with schedule items are shown.
Enable Tracks by toggling the switch if you want schedule categorization available.
Toggle "Multiple Track Types" if your events typically require different track categories.
Multiple Track Types allows for more complex event organization with different track categories.
Configure calendar sync date ranges that make sense for most of your events.
Select which check-in methods should be enabled by default.
Enabling too many check-in methods can create confusion. Select only those that align with your organization's standard practices.
Click "Save" to apply your default schedule settings.
For existing events, navigate to each event individually and apply the same settings.
Create a documentation process for tracking which events have been updated with the standardized settings.
Troubleshooting
If your settings aren't applying consistently across events:
Verify you have System Administrator permissions
Check that you've saved settings at both the template event and account level
Confirm each event's license type supports all the features you're trying to enable
