Hello

We are continuing our exploration of features in Scheduler. We will also be looking at automatic scheduling / assignment via Optimiser but that will be for a separate set of questions I imagine.

Our use cases will be around the scheduling and assigning of thousands of PM works a month.

I have reviewed the available training materials and videos (e.g. by Lacy) but lots of these seem to be from 2020 and I believe there have been enhancements to the graphical applications since then and the materials seem to be working on limited data sets and assigning a task at a time.

I can understand how the applications can be utilised to assign single assignments at a time - but not seeing how you can actually use the application when you have say 100's of unassigned works in a week  and need to bulk assign them.

Are any of you using Graphical Assignment (would prefer this to Work Week as this I believe is more aligned to Optimiser) with these kind of volumes - how do you make it work for you. Are there more case studies / videos etc to illustrate this usage.

Thanks as ever for any help.

Hi Andrew,

I did a deep dive on Graphical Work Week, you can find all the articles here https://maximosecrets.com/deep-dives/graphical-work-week/

The article on Assignments has a section towards the bottom called - Assign Multiple Assignments in one action.
