2. [Schedule mission](/boomerang-3-domain-administrator-manual/dashboard/missions/mission-handling/schedule-mission.md) <img src="/files/wkPwVz0g2rS71UklibjX" alt="" data-size="line"> in the future.
3. Cancel <img src="/files/XYXAL69nZTKG1jULFb4s" alt="" data-size="line"> the active mission.&#x20;

If you want to cancel a scheduled mission then you first need to modify the [Time range selection](/boomerang-3-domain-administrator-manual/dashboard/time-range-selection.md) using Custom settings and set the end to future date beyond the scheduled mission start date. After this change the scheduled mission will be shown in the Missions list and it will be possible to select it and cancel.

4. The grey Move <img src="/files/T1QeVCZdWQg8NRHw2nRp" alt="" data-size="line"> button is used to move a mission to a virtual Mission MP. It is not active during an active mission.
5. The current mission is shown as active in the Mission list. The scheduled active mission shows the start and stop time, a mission that was not scheduled has only start time. There is also an active mission  marker shown after the active mission buttons.
