# Scheduled Modification

There are two ways to modify a scaffold. You can create a modification request or a scheduled modification. A scheduled modification allows a user to modify a scaffold without creating a request. This saves time as you can start the modification without waiting for another user to approve the request.

**Creating a Scheduled modification from the Map screen**

1. On the **Map** screen, select the scaffold and then select **Standing**
2. Select **Modify** ![](https://cdn.document360.io/ae69c864-58f0-4711-91e1-d1c2f7dff95f/Images/Documentation/modify%20part%201(1).gif)
3. Select **Create a new Scheduled Modification** and click **OK** When modifying a scaffold, you will be given three options:
  - **Create a new request to Modify Scaffold** - This opens the **Request** **Details** screen allowing the requestor to specify the changes that need to be made to the scaffold and creates this as a new request. This request can be viewed in the [**Request**](/v1/docs/working-with-requests-desktop) screen and the **Request** screen of the scaffold. Once approved, this will create a modification that can be used again by selecting the **Use an existing scheduled modification** option.
  - **Create a new scheduled modification** - Create a scheduled modification without creating a new request. This will create a modification that can be used again by selecting the **Use an existing scheduled modification** option.
  - **Use an existing scheduled modification** - Create a scheduled modification from an already existing modification ![](https://cdn.document360.io/ae69c864-58f0-4711-91e1-d1c2f7dff95f/Images/Documentation/image-7Z756V69.png)
