# Scheduling Questionnaires

> Assign questionnaires to athletes with flexible recurrence patterns and availability windows.

## Creating Assignments

Once you've built a questionnaire, you need to **assign** it to athletes with a schedule. Each assignment defines who receives it, when, and how often.

### Steps to Create an Assignment

1. Open a questionnaire and click **Assignments**.
2. Click **Add Assignment**.
3. Configure the following:

### Timezone

Select the timezone for scheduling. This defaults to your browser's timezone and determines when the questionnaire becomes available to athletes.

### Recurrence Pattern

Choose how often athletes receive the questionnaire:

| Pattern             | Description                                                       |
| ------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Every day**       | Daily delivery                                                    |
| **Specific days**   | Select which days of the week (Mon-Sun) using interactive buttons |
| **Once a week**     | Pick a single weekday                                             |
| **Once a month**    | Monthly recurrence                                                |
| **Custom interval** | Every N days (e.g., every 3 days)                                 |

### Start & End Dates

* **Starts at** (required): When the assignment begins
* **Ends at** (optional): When to stop sending. Leave blank for ongoing assignments.

### Availability Window

Control when athletes can complete the questionnaire each day:

* **All day**: Available for the full 24 hours
* **Custom hours**: Set a "From" and "To" time (e.g., 6:00 AM - 12:00 PM for morning check-ins)

### Target

Choose who receives this assignment:

| Target             | Description                                |
| ------------------ | ------------------------------------------ |
| **Single athlete** | Assign to one specific athlete             |
| **Athlete tag**    | Assign to all athletes with a specific tag |
| **All athletes**   | Broadcast to your entire organization      |

<Tip>
  Using tag-based assignment means new athletes who receive that tag will automatically be included in the questionnaire schedule.
</Tip>

## Managing Assignments

The **Assignments dialog** shows a table of all assignments for a questionnaire:

| Column     | Description                                            |
| ---------- | ------------------------------------------------------ |
| Target     | Who receives it (athlete name, tag, or "All athletes") |
| Schedule   | Human-readable recurrence description                  |
| Start date | When assignments began                                 |
| End date   | When assignments end (or "Ongoing")                    |
| Status     | Active or Paused toggle                                |

### Pausing & Resuming

Each assignment has an **Active/Paused** toggle. Pausing an assignment stops delivery without deleting it, and you can resume at any time. This is useful for:

* Temporarily stopping questionnaires during off-season
* Pausing while you revise questions
* Suspending for injured athletes
