  1. Open the Press schedule tab and replace the sample rows with your own — one row per entry. Formulas fill in automatically for new rows.
  2. End time adds changeover (about 9 minutes per screen) and run time; Press conflict turns red when jobs overlap on a press (Auto 1 here).
  3. Jobs still waiting on art should not be slotted early in the day.
  4. Using Google Sheets? Upload the file to Google Drive, then open it with Google Sheets (or File → Import in an open sheet). Formulas, dropdowns and highlights carry over.

The file opens locally on your device — nothing is uploaded, and you own the copy outright.
