Can I increase total hours in a day more then 60 hours?

[hhjeong1222]

I am working in a company 24/7. Usual schedule is for 4weeks or 5weeks.

Shift is day(8AM to 6PM), mid(2PM to 0AM), and night(6PM to next day 8AM)

Day-mid or day-night are impossible, day-day of next day is possible.


I saw below articles.

If the maximum of hours is increased to 105hours(3 x 35days), then my problem maybe be solved.

Is there a way to solve it?

You can modify src/engine/timetable_defs.h
line 136
and recompile.

just the interface fet->data->hours per day won't be fine. but that is not critical if you just modify the saved fet file to enter the hours. All other stuff should work fine.

Maybe also see: http://lalescu.ro/liviu/fet/forum/index.php?topic=1511.msg8197

But why do you need 105 hours per day? I thought you only needed 3 "hours" per day. As you can input 35 days per "week".

With my method above, I don't know if you can manage this: "Day-mid or day-night are impossible, day-day of next day is possible." Maybe that is why you asked to use more hours? So that you can add constraints min hours between activities?

Really thank you for reply.


I reviewed earlier posts.

In my company, Day1 night worker can not work at Day2 day.

Is it possible in 3hours x 35day setting?

I hope it is my misunderstanding.

That is what I thought - I think you need 105 hours per day. Just increase the variable MAX_HOURS_PER_DAY, as indicated by Volker, and recompile. Then add the hours in the .fet XML file with a text editor and don't open the hours dialog in FET.
