Scheduling Rules

Working/Operating Time

The working/operating time specifies when work can be carried out. The calendar used for scheduling distinguishes between workdays and non-working days. You can define a working/operating time in the system by specifying the start and end of shifts as well as the breaks for each workday.

The following rules apply:

If the unit of the phase duration is smaller than the unit day, the working/operating time per working day applies.

If the unit of the individual phase is greater than or equal to the working day, the phases are scheduled to the day on the basis of the calendar used for scheduling.

Additionally, there are specific rules for date determination (see the Date section in Date Determination at Operation Level) when times are exactly at work start, work finish, or midnight.
