# Mode

![Workstation Options - Mode](https://documentation.payfacto.com/POS/MaitreD/Fulldoc/assets/images/Chap05/WorkstationOptions/03-WSOptions-Mode.png)

The Mode branch of the workstation options allows you to configure the mode schedule for each day of the week for the selected workstation.

Maitre'D supports up to 32 modes which can be controlled by this scedule.

### Modify the schedule

* Clicking on a cell allows the time to be modified.
* This scedule accepts decimal numbers and uses military time. For example, to set a mode to start at 7:00 AM, type 7.00. For 2:30 PM, type 14.30.
* Pressing "ENTER" on your keyboard will automatically select the next cell to the right. Once the last column (Sunday) is reached, pressing enter will select the first cell of the next line.
* If a mode should be skipped altogether for certain days, select the appropriate cell in the schedule and press the BACKSPACE key on your keyboard.  The cell will become blank.
* The last row is called "Closed". This is the time at which the workstation closes and can no longer be used, until the time of the first mode is reached.
* If the restaurant operates 24 hours and the workstations should never close, simply delete the time in each cell of the Closed row by pressing the BACKSPACE key on your keyboard.
