Under A, you can see a number input for the different amount of days you'd like for there to be in the daily contracted hours cycle.

Under B, you can specify what day of this daily cycle **we are currently on**.

For example, if I wanted a schedule where every week a staff member was working every day apart from Wednesday and Thursday, I would put a shift on every day except for 3 and 4. By setting the current day under B to 1, I am confirming that in this cycle the current day is day 1, which in this cycle I would like to be Monday. For the weekdays to line up with my cycle it therefore must be Monday today.
