How are Horses allocated to Schedule Entries on Stable Manage?
Horses are allocated to Schedule Entries on the Allocation screen.
If you are unfamiliar with Allocations; first read the brief overview (it will take less than one minute): Overview of Allocations
There are two ways of accessing the Allocation screen for the date you want.
1. Select the date first and then select “Allocations” from the main menu.
2. Select “Allocations” from the main menu first and then select the date of interest.
Step by Step Example
We’ll start with a day selected, containing two Schedule Entries. The first “Feeding” is not going to need Attendees and the second “Schooling” has two Attendees already set.
If you do not know what Attendees are; have a quick look at this article before moving on: Overview of Attendees.

Select Allocations from the main menu:

The Allocations screen is displayed, both of the Schedule Entries are visible.
– There is an ADD HORSE button for each Schedule Entry allowing you to allocate unassigned (free) horses to the Entry. Any horses allocated in this way are horses without an assigned Attendee.
– There is a SET HORSE button for each Attendee on an entry. These buttons are for allocating a horse to the specific Attendee.
Set an Unassigned (Free) Allocation

Click an ADD HORSE button for any entry to add an unassigned horse allocation:

Select a horse, either by searching (type its stable name) or by clicking the “show all horses” link to bring up a pick list.
You can use the switch to choose whether or not the search will include horses marked as “Deceased” or “Unavailable” on the Horse Details screen. By default they are not included.
When you have selected a horse click the SAVE button:

We can see that PEGASUS is allowed to the Feeding Schedule Entry.
To change to a different horse click on a horse’s name and a similar dialog will appear.

Set an Attendee Allocation
Click the SET HORSE button opposite any attendee:

A dialog similar to the unassigned allocation dialog appears.
As before you can use the switch to choose whether or not the search will include horses marked as “Deceased” or “Unavailable” on the Horse Details screen. By default they are not included.
The Attendee is displayed as a reminder for who you are going to assign a horse to:

As before, search for a horse or click “show all horses” to select the horse from a pick list, then click the SAVE button and the dialog will close. In the example we have allocated Barkley to Jennifer:

We can see Barkley allocated to Jennifer on the Allocation screen:

TIP: If you have a full schedule, the filter box in the top right can be useful to reduce what is displayed.

Then repeat the process for the rest of the Schedule Entries that you want to allocation. It’s amazing how fast this process becomes when you get used to it. In real time the example is fully allocated in less than a minute:

Select Schedule from the main menu to return, we can see the allocated horses as “badges” on each Schedule Entry:

The great news? .. any change or adjustment to your Schedule Entries, Attendees and Allocations, is immediately visible to your staff when they check the schedule to see what’s coming up next – TIME SAVED!
