Schedule

The Schedule page visualizes work orders and connected operations in an interactive gantt chart, allowing you to adjust the schedule based on constraints such as capacity and POB limits.

Before you start

To use schedule, you must first create a list in the Scope view. You can create several lists, so you can switch between the different scopes in the Schedule view.

In this article:

• Before you start
• Optimizing the schedule
  • Personnel onboard limit (POB)
• Trade matrix
• Change configuration
• Comments

Optimizing the schedule

In the Schedule view, you can explore the work orders in your scope. Click on the work order to see their Operations. This also zooms your view to that work order's timeline.

Note! If operations have different phases, the operations have different colors:

• Light blue: prep hase
• Dark blue: execution phase
• Green: post phase

You may adjust the timing of the work orders and its operations:

• Click and drag the different bars to your preferred timing.
• Click and drag the cursor to adjust the start and end time.
• Click the settings wheel to adjust the number of hours in a workday.

When the schedule is done, you can download it as a Gantt chart.

Personnel onboard limit (POB)

Click the date to set a phase duration and POB limit. A red warning appears when you reach your POB limit for a day.

Trade matrix

The trade matrix shows the schedule for different trades such as mechanics, welders, scaffolding etc in a matrix scheme.

• In Scheduling view, click the blue tab to see the trade matrix. If you have two scopes visualized, the matrix addresses the first schedule (listed at the top of the screen).
• The matrix shows the disciplines for your current scope and total/available man-hours.
• You can edit the number of hours. The boxes will then be marked with a dot in different colors.
• When hovering over the different boxes, you will be prompted with the possibility to edit the maximum number of hours:

Green: available capacity Yellow: exceeding ideal capacity Red: capacity exceeded given current scope

• You can download the trade matrix as an excel file.

Change configuration

The configuration button is located in the bottom right corner. You can change the work day hours and the daily capacity for a resource.
