---- constraints activity tag preferred rooms.

Thanks for the clue to solve this gigantic task.
Thanks once again.

I saw your file. I think the easiest is to add two constraints activity tag preferred rooms.

Thank you very much. As I wanted, the problem was solved.
Do I have to constrain one by one room at a time for my 250 subjects? Is there a way to import it into Excel or .xml?
Otherwise it will be more than a titanic task!

I have created a timetable. Its output is fine, but no room number is showing in the output timetable. How do I assign room numbers to the timetable? I will be benefited if any kind hearted person gives proper guidelines.

I have attached the file for ease of understanding or viewing.

--- Adding manually data and constraints is time consuming. I think that in many cases 'preparing' your data on a spreadsheet application is much faster than adding manually teachers, students, subjects, etc. Most likely it would be a great idea if importing data from CSV files could include importing these new 'parameters' (long names, codes, etc) PLUS the active/inactive attribute for activities/subactivities.

Yes, I agree with you. Manually entering huge data is time consuming and annoying.

Thank you very much for helping with this information. Now I will try to understand 'FET system' in depth. If there is any problem, I hope to find this forum next.

Indeed, Vangelis, we will try. But for the moment, I would prefer to release a stable version of FET for this summer/autumn.

My organization information is as follows:
About 80 teachers,
Seven different technology (departments) and
Four semesters (as like classes),
Two groups (A, B) each semester.
There are about 250 subjects in all.
The subjects are divided into theory and practical (single class) and triple/double period classes.

Is there an easy way to import this huge amount of data directly into the FET system without manually inputting it?

In the FET timetable, I want the output as follows:
The teacher's timetable will contain the following information:
Subject Code
Class (Semester/Group)
Room No.
The student's timetable will contain the following information:
Subject Code
The teacher's short name
Room No.
Is this output possible in the FET timetable?

I am new to the FET schedule. I collect teachers' names, subject, subject code, and other information from all departments in my institution in an Excel file. Is there any complete Excel sample format so that I can collect data in Excel format and then convert it to CSV format and import to the FET schedule?
