Trip list		All trips created in the program settings / selection lists for the Projects module are listed in the trip list. Here the days of the week on which they are regularly driven are assigned to the trips via checkboxes. When selecting a trip in the project, the combination of the bound date and the allowed weekdays is then validated. The active column determines whether the respective tour can currently be used and is therefore available for selection in the contact and project details or not.
