Two calendars for one resource
Hello!
Is it possible (way) to use two or more working calendars (for example night shift and standart) for one person in different periods (for different tasks) so that working time has been filled correctly inside period, without overallocations and calendar's conflicts?
If we use different calendars in different tasks and one resource assigned for them we get a calendar's conflict.
May be need to use other way?
Thank you!
Igor

RE: Two calendars for one resource
Hi Igors,
Thank you for your question.
When you go into the Task Information screen you can change the calendar on the advanced tab for that particular task.
So if a Resource has its own calendar you can set the working time for that resource.
However for certain tasks the resource may be working shift patterns and another calendar is needed such as the night shift.
Go the task information for the particular task and select the Advanced tab. Then select Night Shift from the Calendar option and tick the 'Scheduling ignores the resources calendar'.
I hope this answers your question.
Regards
Simon
