Master Sequence

I have a Master sequence that calls other child sequences. I have restart ability set on the child sequences. The Master is schedule nightly. Is there a way (without manual interation) so that the Master runs from the start even if the child sequences abort the night before. I want to control the sequence from the Master. In the same token, I need to keep the child sequences with restart-ability. Just in case we decide to continue the run before the next scheduled run.

Thanks

Don't add checkpoints to the Master Sequence.

And if I want to start a child from where it left off, is there a way to run it from the Master (once the checkpoint is turned off).

That will happen automatically as long as the child sequence has checkpoints. They are completely separate processes each with (or without) their own checkpoints, it's not like it's an "all or nothing" affair. Your trouble spot will be if a check-pointed child sequence aborts and you want it to start from the beginning, that will require manual intervention to reset that child.
