# Scheduling a due date for manual executions

> Set a due date for a manual test case execution so overdue logs are highlighted.

Give a manual test case execution a deadline, either on its own or while you assign it to a user. If the date passes before the test case log runs, the due date is highlighted.

## Steps

1. Go to the **Execution** section of your project.
2. Select a manual test execution and open it.
3. Open a test case log.
4. In the **Due Date** field, from the test case log header, enter the due date. The format should be: Month/Day/Year. You can also select the date using the date picker.
   :::note
   You can also set the due date when assigning the manual test case execution to a user.

## Result

The due date appears in the **Due Date** field of the test case log header.
