Start times and gaps
Proposed starts across the day with the space between them stated, so a schedule that looks fine on paper is not one that empties the same corridor twice at once.
Showtime scheduling
A schedule built in a spreadsheet is a schedule nobody can check. CineScope builds and finalises the week's showtimes, keeps the gaps and turnaround explicit, and hands next week to the Showtime Optimizer as a draft a programmer approves.

Proposed starts across the day with the space between them stated, so a schedule that looks fine on paper is not one that empties the same corridor twice at once.
The time a room actually needs between shows, and therefore what a day can hold — rather than what a plan assumes it can.
Moving a title between auditoriums is a swap, not a rebuild, because slots are named rather than hard-wired to a room.
The optimizer drafts; a person reviews and approves. Nothing reaches your POS until somebody decides it should and enters it.
Finalised schedules are entered into your POS by your team, and last year's houses can be backfilled from a spreadsheet. A circuit that started this week therefore has something to compare against from day one instead of waiting a season for the comparisons in programming analytics to mean anything.
It is where the week's schedule is built and finalised: which title plays in which room, at what times, with the gaps and turnaround between shows made explicit rather than assumed. Once approved, the plan is handed to your team to enter into the POS — CineScope does not write showtimes into it.
It plans next week: proposed start times, the gaps between them, the turnaround a room needs, and what a day can realistically hold. A programmer reviews and approves it — the optimizer proposes a schedule, it never puts anything on sale.
As named slots rather than hard-coded rooms, so moving a title from one auditorium to another does not mean rebuilding the day around it.
No. It plans the week and hands you a finished schedule; entering it into the POS stays a manual step your team controls. Scheduling and the optimizer are part of the Cinema edition, and the comparison work in programming analytics uses the POS sales feed.
Last year's houses can be backfilled from a spreadsheet, so a circuit that signed up on Monday has something to compare against rather than waiting a year to get useful answers.
No. Booking is a programmer's judgement. The scheduler plans and finalises the week, and programming analytics tells you afterwards how a title performed against what a typical title at that same cinema sold on that weekday.
