    OR

  • Click a plan in either the Days or Weeks view and change the Start Date and End Date in the Edit Plan form

Splitting plans

After you've created a plan, you may need to divide it for many reasons. For example, if you’ve made plans that span weekends or days off, you can split the plan, then drag the ends of each new plan so that it doesn’t cover the weekend.

...

  1. Click the (...) in the right corner of a plan and select Split, or press Ctrl (Windows) or Command (Mac).
