# Door Access Schedule Management

A door access schedule lets you decide who can open the door and when. It applies to both individuals and groups, ensuring that users within the schedule can only open the door using the authorized method during designated time periods.

## Create a Door Access Schedule

You can create door access schedules for daily, weekly, or custom time periods.

To set up the schedule, navigate to the **Setting > Schedule** interface. Click **+Add**. You can add 100 local schedules.

- **Name**: Name the schedule.
- **Mode**:
  - **Normal**: Set the schedule based on the month, week, and day. It is used for a long-term schedule.
  - **Weekly**: Set the schedule based on the week.
  - **Daily**: Set the schedule based on 24 hours a day.
- **Holiday Exemption**: The [holiday schedule](/v1/docs/door-access-schedule-management-13#holiday-schedule) has higher priority over the access schedule, which limits users from opening doors. If users want to open doors during holidays within the access schedule, you need to check this option.

> Note
> 
> The access control schedule synchronized from the SmartPlus cannot be edited or deleted.

You can also set up schedules on the **Setting > Schedule** screen.
