Hi All

How do I set up a work pattern for a night shift that starts at 20:00 on Tuesday and ends 05:00 Wednesday?

Best regards

Hi Mike,

 

Create a new work pattern and delete all working time from Monday, Thursday and Friday.

Tuesday and Wednesday looks like this. Then copy an exsiting calendar and apply this work pattern to the calendar. make sure you draw tasks in hours. Any probs email me.

 

Thanks

 

Andy

Model the work hours for Tuesday 20:00 to 24:00 and Wednesday 00:00 to 05:00.

In the following example I modeled 2 such consecutive days as to include this possibility where previous night shift ends am on a given day and next night shift starts pm the same given day. You can see a resource working on the activity five days during daytime and a resource working two night per week on the same activity. No need to model shifts as different activities, otherwise your model might not be correct if both shifts are a continuation of the same work.

It is not Asta but suppose the approach shall be similar.

The following calendar cycle consists of 3 consecutive work days and a non-work day, a cycle of 4 days instead of the 7 days within a natural week. Very easy to model using a single recurring calendar exception that can be one day duration or even more.  As you can see not all Mondays are work days. This might also be of interest.
