Asignaturas por cuadrimestres

[cristina]

Buenas tardes,
tenemos asignaturas que solo se hacen un cuadrimestre, dando paso a otra asignatura con otra profesora el segundo cuadrimestre.

Como lo hago para agruparlas dentro de la misma hora, pero teniendo en cuenta en qué cuadrimestre está ocupada una profesora o la otra? Adjunto una muestra.

muchas gracias,
cristina

Buenas tardes,

Please forgive me for writing in English, please translate with Google Translate:

If you have to do the timetable for 4 cuadrimestres, in which some activities change, and the availability of some teachers changes, maybe you could use the FET Terms mode. Use 4 terms. You can read more about this mode in the FET Help (which also redirects to a detailed topic here).

Thank you very much for your quick answer! where can I select the 4 terms? 

[Liviu Lalescu]

You are welcome!

Select the Terms mode, then in Data > (Basic) > Terms.

You might need to add many constraints same starting time. These problems might unfold as you progress, but I am not sure, because I do not know exactly all your timetabling problems.

[cristina]

Great, thanks!!
I will change it the way you told me.

Thank you so much!

[Liviu Lalescu]

You are most welcome!

But I would invite you to read the Help about the Terms mode, and also try the Terms example files. I am not sure about your timetable, you need to be careful before embarking on the difficult task of entering the data.

[Liviu Lalescu]

Hmm... sorry, I was maybe rushing my answer.

For the usual activities, in the Terms mode you will need to input them 4 times each.

For the variable activities, input them once each.

Then you might need to ensure that they are correspondingly on the same real-life day and hour. This can be done with 3 constraints min+max days between activities and 1 constraint activities same starting hour (any days).

Thanks!!

sounds great. I gonna read and practice with the exercises.

thanks!

[cristina]

Good night!

I'm not sure about the difference between 2 terms x 5 days and one week with 10 days... How I can set one activity on the second term and not on first?

thanks!

[Liviu Lalescu]

Hello, @cristina ,

For the Terms mode, you have additionally 4 time constraints: see Activities -> Others (2), the last 4 time constraints. Please let me know if you find them.

About your second question, is easy: preferred times.

Hi, Liviu,

yes, I get it. Thank you!
