Managing your project workspace includes occasionally removing schedules that are no longer needed. Think Crew provides a simple process for deleting schedules while protecting against accidental deletions.
When to Delete a Schedule
You might want to delete a schedule when:
- The schedule was created for testing purposes only
- A schedule has been replaced by an updated version
- You’ve accumulated too many draft schedules that are no longer relevant
- A production plan has been canceled or significantly restructured
- You want to clean up your project workspace for better organization
How to Delete a Schedule
To delete a schedule in Think Crew:
- Navigate to the Schedules page in your project
- Find the schedule you want to delete
- Click the “Select” button from the top right of the menu bar
- Click the checkboxes of any schedules you wish to delete
- Select “Delete” from the menu bar
- A confirmation dialog will appear asking you to confirm the deletion
- Click “Delete” to permanently remove the schedule
Important Considerations
Before deleting a schedule, keep these points in mind:
- Permanent Action: Deleting a schedule cannot be undone
- Permissions Required: You must have appropriate project permissions to delete schedules
- Alternatives: Consider archiving or exporting the schedule before deletion if you might need it later
- Team Impact: Ensure team members are aware before removing shared schedules
- Project Timeline: Deleted schedules will no longer appear in project history or timelines
Safer Alternatives to Deletion
If you’re uncertain about permanently deleting a schedule, consider these alternatives:
- Export First: Create a backup export of the schedule before deleting
- Rename: Add “[ARCHIVE]” or a similar prefix to clearly mark outdated schedules
- Move: Transfer the schedule to an archive project designated for old materials
- Duplicate: Create a merged version of multiple schedules before deleting the originals
Maintaining a clean project workspace by removing unnecessary schedules helps your team focus on current production needs while improving system performance and navigation efficiency.
