What if you want your active bulletin date to match your service date? 

Because your selected active bulletin date (when the new bulletin goes live) does not always line up with your service date, here’s a tip on how to create duplicate bulletins to make this a seamless experience on your service date.

  1. Copy your most recent bulletin or create a new bulletin from scratch.
  2. Set that bulletin’s active date to go live on a day of your choosing (ex. Friday or Saturday before service)
  3. Make any needed changes to that bulletin to reflect updates for this upcoming week.
  4. Lastly, duplicate that new bulletin and set the active bulletin date to be your service date. You will then have two bulletins set to go live in the future, one that appears on your go-live date, and another bulletin that will be set to your service date with the correct date header.
