<aside> 👉🏻 Note:
- (Required) If the setpoint is already assigned to another set of periods, first remove it from that group, click Save changes, and then proceed to add the setpoint to the new period group as usual.
- (Optional) For safety reason, if the setpoint currently has an active formula, we recommend turning it off first and review its formula afterwards before re-activation. </aside>
