Schedule an activity every day of the week at the same time

[rmr964]

Hi,

I'm new to FET and looking at exploring to see if we can use it for our small school.
I'm trying to schedule an activity every day of the week at the same time -Eg. Assembly at 8:15. and Morning and afternoon breaks

Hope you can help

Welcome,

Assembly: A lot of possible variants. Difficult to say which one is the best. It's depending on your whole dataset:
- subject preferred time
- activity tag preferred time
- ...

Breaks:
Overall 3 variants. All with different advantages and disadvantages. Depending on what you need.
1. Just don't enter hours (FET hours per day) contain a break only. (In normal case this is the best variant)
2. Use the break constraint (time constraints -> Miscellaneous -> Break)
3. Use pseudo activities and do it like "Assembly" activities

Maybe also have a look into the manual:

Maybe you mean activities same starting hour (not time!, only hour).

but how Schedule all activities every day of the week at the same time ??

[Volker Dirr]

hmmm... reading it word by word:
If you schedule all activities every day the same time, then it is the easiest to enter only a single day and tell the teachers/students that it is valid every day.

But i guess that is not what you want.
The other variant reading your question is:
If math is in the 1st hour, then it should be always in the 1st hour. And if English is in the last hour, then English should be always in the last hour. The advantage is, that it is easy to remeber. The disadvanatge is, that English is always the last. So i don't recommend to try something like that.
If you have a odd number of activities and/or if teachers or students are sometimes not available, then such a request is pretty fast also impossible.

But mabye we talk about different stuff.
Please explain more detailed what you want to do. Maybe even add also your FET file, so we can have a look at it what you try.
