# Why does a scheduled transfer appear many times in the list?

Each scheduled run is added as its own entry, so the list doubles as a history: you can see when each run happened, how much it moved and whether it succeeded — much like a list of past backups.

To tidy up, select an old run and click **Remove**, or use **Clear completed** to remove every finished, failed and cancelled entry at once. Be aware that Clear completed also removes a schedule's original entry and stops that schedule.
