Hi Liviu,

I have a timetable(for students) in excel, whih was designed by one of the teachers in excel itself. Is it possible to import it somehow into FET?

Iwoul like to generate a timetable(for teacher) using FET, based on imported timetable ?

Regards

Hi Liviu,

Sorry and yes, mixed up the files.

Hi Liviu,

Thanks, I'll check it out, I think this is also mentioned in the Volker dirr tutorial on YT.

Also, i came across a peculiar issue.
As you can see (screenshot 123), the weight % on the contraint that all math classes have min 1 day between them is set to 100.

And, in screenshot 124, you can see that Monday has 2 math classes and saturday has none.

I can't figure out why. Is there something wrong with the constraint ?

And thank you for helping out with my silly questions.

Hi Liviu,

I've attached the latest version of timetable, it works perfectly fine.

there are a few periods in each class, which are free (no activity allocated). I would like to have them clubbed together and have it placed at the end of any day.

So, if class 1 has 2 free periods, it would like to have them placed togeather at the end of any day.

any suggestions how i can approach this problem.

Hi Liviu,

I just wanted to let you know, that a time table has been successfully generated after correcting the problem you pointed out    

Currently, I'm trying sort out the last of kinks. I'll  keep you posted

And Thanks again

Hi again,

I found that i've been using "if on sameday then conecutive - as yes" in many places. I've corrected them all but no luck on timetble generation.

[Version]

Hi Liviu,

I've done all that i could have and i'm still unable to generate a timetable.

i've made all activities flexible (none of the min. days % is 100%, except for 2 or 3 activities).
I've checked the statistics, all of them look good.

I've added 2 files:

Version	Timetable		Fault
Colonels Academy_2	generated		Trying add Exam activity on Monday, constraint added- for preffered starting time - crossed all time and left space for exam
Colonels Academy_2_a	NO		cross only the space for exam and remove exam component. Tried relaxing the activity constraint - relaxing the no consecutive restrictio on less imp. Subjects (Comp>Hin>Eng>Math
Colonels Academy_2_D1	NO		1) Removing Club, Remed, Exam nd Blocking student time for Monday and remedial  (2) All activities readded with fexibility

Colonels Academy_2_D1 -- should be able to generate a timetable, but can't (currently its been running for 45 minutes but only 170/610 activities have been placed).

Could you kindly have a look and suggest where i'm going wrong.

Hi Liviu,

I'm feeding the data into FET, I have added teachers, subjects and i'm in process of adding activities.

I then have to add a constraint break for all the teachers. Got it.

Thanks for the guidance, i'll let you know how it goes.

Hello Everyone,

This is my first time using the app and forum, do let me know if this is the right place to ask for assistance.

So, basicly, I have designed a timetable format in excel which has certain fixed periods (Morning Assembly, Lunch Break, short Break, Monday exams, etc), which will happen in a designated period for the day/week. And I would like the remaining periods to be filled with the activities that i add.

I would like to know, how can i replicate the timetable by additing the fixed periods in FET .

Hope i am able to explain what I am trying to do.

I have attached an csv file with the timetable format that i would like to replicate.

Thank you.
