| No. | Application case | Result: |
|---|
| 1 | Planning with Adherence to Schedule with Several Resources
- Task with several task resources
- The Planned duration of the task is preset.
- Planning type = adher. to schedule
| - The planning is carried out by the scheduling along the duration of the task.
- Scheduling does not prevent overload.
- Overload will be indicated.
|
| 2 | Planning with Adherence to Total Float with Several Resources
- Task with several task resources
- The Planned duration of the task is preset.
- Planning type = adher. to total float
| - The planning is carried out by the scheduling along the duration of the task.
- Scheduling does not prevent overload.
- The float of overloaded resources is not used to compensate possible overload. If there is not sufficient float, resources will be overloaded
- Resource 1 with overload: Float is used
- Resource 2 with overload: Starts at the earliest start date.
|
| 3 | Planning with adherence to capacity
- Task with several task resources
- The Planned duration of the task is preset.
- Planning type = adherent to capacity
| - The task is planned by the scheduling without taking the Planned duration of the task into account.
- Resources are not overloaded.
- The float of the overloaded resource is used:
- Resources are not scheduled during non-working days.
|
| 4 | Resources with Vacation, Planning with Adherence to Schedule
- Resources with vacation
- Linear load
- The duration of vacation is shorter than the task duration.
- Planning type = adher. to schedule
| - Scheduling carries out the planning block-wise.
- The resource is not planned by the scheduling during vacation.
- On working days, the resource will possibly be planned with overload.
|
| 5 | Resources with vacation > Task duration, Planning with adherence to schedule
- Resources with vacation
- Linear load
- The duration of vacation is longer than the task duration.
- Planning type = adher. to schedule
| - The planning is scheduled before or at the start of vacation.
- The effort is displayed as overload due to the unavailability of the resource on vacation.
- If the entire task lies within the vacation period, it will be loaded at the calculated start date of the task.
|
| 6 | Planning with Adherence to Total Float with Vacation
- Vacation is entered for a resource.
- Linear Load Profile
- The duration of vacation is shorter than the task duration.
- Planning type = adher. to total float
| - Outside the vacation period scheduling carries out the planning block-wise.
- Available float is used. If the float is exhausted, scheduling will overload the resource.
- This resource is not scheduled during vacation.
- The planning is not splitted.
|
| 7 | Planning with Adherence to Capacity with Vacation
- Vacation is entered for a resource.
- Linear Load Profile
- The duration of vacation is shorter than the task duration.
- Planning type = adherent to capacity
| - Outside the vacation period scheduling carries out the planning block-wise.
- This resource is not scheduled during vacation.
|
| 8 | Planning with Adherence to Total Float with Requested end and Fixing = 0
- Task with several task resources
- The Planned duration is predefined.
- Requested end on a task
- Set the Fixing parameter = 0
- The vacation of a resource is shorter than the task.
- Planning type = adher. to total float
| - Scheduling plans the task on its Requested end.
- When setting Fixing = 0, the Requested end is exceeded if necessary.
- No consideration of float and possible overload since the specification of a Requested end causes loading with adherence to schedule.
- The task is not moved.
|
| 8.1 | Planning with Adherence to Total Float with Requested end and Fixing = 1
| - Scheduling plans the task on its Requested end.
- When setting Fixing = 1, the Requested end is adhered to and the task is loaded with adherence to schedule.
- Float and overloads are not taken into account.
- The task is not moved.
|
| 8.2 | Planning with adherence to Requested start on the resource assignment
Task with several task resources
| |
| 9 | Planning with adherence to capacity with Requested end and Fixing = 1
Task with several task resources
| - The fact that the Fixing parameter is set = 1 causes the task to be loaded with adherence to schedule.
- The task is not extended or moved. Overloads may occur.
|
| 10 | Planning with adherence to schedule of a task with predecessor, Requested start and Fixing = 0
- Vacation is entered for a resource.
- Linear Load Profile
- The duration of vacation is shorter than the task duration.
- Task with predecessor and Requested start, Fixing = 0
- Planning type = adher. to schedule
| - The task does not start at the Requested start but after the predecessor has ended.
- The vacation of the resource is taken into account.
- Remaining duration= Planned duration
|
| 11 | Planning with Adherence to Total Float with Effort > Availability
- Task with several task resources
- The Planned duration is predefined.
- The capacity needed for the required duration exceeds the available capacity.
- Planning type = adher. to total float
| - Scheduling exploits available float.
- If no more float is available, the task is planned block-wise at the latest possible point in time.
|
| 12 | Planning with Adherence to Capacity with Effort > Availability
- Task with several task resources
- The Planned duration of the task is predefined.
- The capacity needed for the required duration exceeds the available capacity.
- Planning type = adherent to capacity
| - Scheduling exploits available float. Scheduling is delayed until loading in is possible in a block. The project end date is possibly exceeded.
- The resource is not planned during its vacation, the task is not splitted
|
| 13 | Planning with Adherence to Total Float of a TA with Predecessor, Requested end and Fixing = 0
- Vacation is entered for a resource.
- Linear Load Profile
- The duration of vacation is shorter than the task duration.
- Task with predecessor and Requested start
- Set the Fixing parameter = 0
- Planning type = adher. to total float
| - The task does not start at the Requested start but after the predecessor has ended.
- The vacation of the resource is taken into account.
- Remaining duration = Planned duration
- Float is not exploited since a task with date is always automatically loaded with adherence to schedule.
|
| 14 | Planning with Adherence to Total Float of a TA with Predecessor, Requested end and Fixing = 0
- Vacation is entered for a resource.
- Linear Load Profile
- The duration of vacation is shorter than the task duration.
- Task with predecessor and Requested start
- Set the Fixing parameter = 0
- Planning type = adherent to capacity
| - The task does not start at the Requested start but after the predecessor has ended.
- The vacation of the resource is taken into account.
- Remaining duration = Planned duration
- Float is not exploited since a task with date is always automatically loaded with adherence to schedule.
|
| 15 | Calc. start for reporting of several task resources
- Plan several resources for a task and record hours:
- as planned
- earlier than planned
- later than planned
| - Scheduling plans the resources with their remaining effort from the TAR Actual start on.
- If the day following the Actual start date is a non-working day, the resource will be scheduled for the next working day.
- The resource will possibly be overloaded.
|
| 16 | Reporting on Vacation
- Several resources are assigned to a task.
- A resource is on vacation during the entire task duration but he/she reports actual hours worked.
| - Scheduling of resources without vacation is carried out in accordance with standard specifications.
- The resource who has reported during vacation is scheduled for the first working day following the reporting period.
- The resource will possibly be overloaded.
