Timetable tab

Delete entry after dragging
This function determines what happens after you drag an entry from the timetable into the tray or the order overview.

• If the box is ticked, then the timetable entry is shifted into the other window and does not remain in the timetable.
• If the box is not ticked, the timetable entry is copied into the other window. It will remain in the timetable as well.

Flagging
You can flag certain orders in the timetable by using different colours. The default setting is No flagging. If you select order flagging, then all entries of one order will be marked in the same colour. If you select group flagging, then the entries of one order will only be marked in the same colour if they had been copied by Ctrl+click (in contrast to a repeated drag&drop of the order from the order overview into the timetable).

Latching
The latching function allows the positioning of entries in the timetable within a 15-minute grid during the dragging.

Show spare time
You can determine whether the time not included in labour time (spare time) will be displayed. If you select Show spare time, then the spare time will be displayed in the respective colour.

Show week-ends in weekly overview
If this box is ticked, then Saturdays and Sundays will be displayed in the weekly overview as well.

Hide order number
If this box is ticked, the order numbers of the entries in the timetable will be hidden.

Starting time/End time
You can choose which time section of the day will be displayed in the timetable.

Refresh timetable, tray and order overview every…
ZePlanner is a network-oriented software, which is why the data at the individual workstations are refreshed in regular intervals. After the time selected here passes, the timetable, the tray and the order overview will be refreshed. The default value is 30 seconds. You can adapt this time to your own requirements.

Standard group
You can specify a standard group, which will be the one displayed automatically whenever the timetable opens.

Administrator configurations
As the administrator, you can select whether an entry may only be changed by the user who created it.

This function displays the name of the employee and the corresponding qualification.
