GWW - Create an assignment for a specific craft

There is no ability to be able to create a new assignment for a particular craft or crew type. You can assign to a Labor or Crew. If you use Create Assignment then this duplicates the current assignment but doesn't allow you to specify a craft or ...

Ability to manually specify End Date and automatically Calculate Start Date of a Project in Graphical Scheduling

If you manage construction projects in Graphical Scheduling, you may have a work order hierarchy with a parent and many levels of children and tasks. I want to specify the end date of the entire project and automatically calculate what date the pr...

[Shifts] Tasks must always be scheduled in the original scheduled shift (Team continuity)

After the first operation of a task is scheduled in one shift, the rest of the task must always be scheduled in that initial shift.

[Optim Result] Avoid few (specific threshold) scheduled job for: Specific craft, specific A/C (Multiline) & specific zone

Avoid scheduling small quantity of jobs for specific craft, A/C or Zone to avoid movement or bussiness incoherencies.
