Great. I can understand now. Thks

For 7 hrs lessons, we accept 2221 or 22111

A1=2,A2=2,A3=1,A4=1,A5=1
A1,A2,A3 min 1 day
A1,A2,A4 min 1 day
A1,A2,A5 min 1 day

A3,A4,A5 min 1 day, 0%, consecutive if on same day

But how can I max at 2 hr a day?

Thks

Fortunately, it is a "hidden feature" (I tried to document it somewhere in the help, but I am not sure I did), that FET won't put 3 or more activities on the same day if they are consecutive if same day. Say A4, A3, A5 is the order, then A4 and A5 are not consecutive - this is the explanation.

Teck Hock

How should I constrain the A3,A4,A5?

Still 1 min day, 0% and tick consecutive for A3,A4,A5?

Thks

Liviu Lalescu

Quoting you: A3,A4,A5 min 1 day, 0%, consecutive if on same day.

Teck Hock

Great. I can understand method 1.

For method 2
Or you can add without min days constraints, but use students/teachers activity tag max 2 hours daily (add a tag to these activities)

How I do use activity tag to cap at max 2 hrs daily?

Liviu Lalescu

There are 4 time constraints: teacher(s)/students (set) activity tag max hours daily, marked with a locked icon. Unlock them in the advanced settings and use them. Let me know if it is still unclear.

Teck Hock

See attached picture. Is the setting correct?

After activating, how do I constrain the max hrs to the activity tag?

Thks

Liviu Lalescu

Yes. Now go to time constraints for teacher(s)/students (sets), the ones that have an unlocked icon before them (Max hours daily with an activity tag for ...).

Teck Hock

Erh Found it. Great
Thks Liviu.
Have a nice day!

Liviu Lalescu

Oh, wow  :)  You're welcome! Have a nice sleep!

Sorry to jump in your post. Could I ask about constraint between activities

If I use this one:

Add new constraints from the time constraints > min days between activities.

Add min 1 days 100% between A1,A2,A3.

Does FET treat it as 3 pairs of activities that need min 1 day? Another word A1&A2, A1&A3 and A2&A3?

Thanks.


Liviu Lalescu

No problem, sasbland,

Yes, exactly, it considers each pair.
