The Invigilation overview is the entry screen for invigilators. It lists every schedule they are assigned to (or have view-only permission for) with the controls needed to monitor candidates. Use this article as the reference for the overview page. For the actions an invigilator takes on a schedule, see Invigilator actions and print options.
