Title: How to mirror days in the timetable
Post by: AzharDR on February 03, 2025, 01:58:01 PM
Hi, I'm trying to mirror the days of the week. For example, we have a schedule for Mon/Wed, a schedule for Tues/Thurs, and a separate one for Fridays (our early release day). I want to add a constraint that will automatically mirror the schedule of Monday on Wednesday and the others as well without manually placing day restraints on each activity individually. Especially if it is not immediately obvious which days would be best for the activity.

Hello,

I am not sure I get the problem correctly. I have some approaches:

1) If the Wed and Thu are copied from Mon and Tue, why not simply generate the timetable for only Mon, Tue, and Fri?

2) If the above is not true, and if you know exactly which activities are double, say A(A1, A2), then add a constraint min 2 days between A1 and A2, max 2 days between A1 and A2, and activities same starting hour (any days) for A1 and A2.

3) If the above is not true, or if there are too many constraints to add manually, you might need a customization.

That is such a simple and brilliant idea to just make a schedule for three days. Thank you so much.
