Processing the overall timetable

previous  Top  next

After all department data have been integrated into the complete school file you can continue to optimise the overall timetable.

 

If you have not yet taken account of shared resources such as teachers or rooms, they will now be included in the overall schedule.

 

Optimisation and room optimisation proceed in the usual way. If, after importing department data , teacher overlaps result because e.g. one teacher teaching in two departments has been scheduled by both departments for We-3, you can best resolve this by setting the "Lock timetable conditionally" option with Optimisation strategy A.

 

Room overlaps can be handled with room optimisation .

 

If required, the optimised overall timetable can then again be split up over the individual departments. Proceed according to the description in the ""Distributing department data" section.
