# Schedules Overview

The Schedules Overview provides a list of every Schedule where users can see at a glance who is currently on-call, what Escalation Policy the Schedule uses, and upcoming shifts. Users can filter all schedules by date range, participants, and escalation policies, and they can easily search and compare schedules.

2. Click the **<** button to move back an iteration of the time period (specified above), or click the **>** button to move forward an iteration of the time period.\
