Composer program guide before creating programs because program information is pulled from Composer.

What is a conflict?A conflict lets you know that 2+ programs are
overlapping or were scheduled for the same time.
How do I resolve a conflict? To resolve a conflict, you can do one of two things:• Edit icon and change the program’s end date to a
date in the past.• Ignore it if it’s a Temporary Edit (if it’s only for one day
or time period)
