Manage Production Calendars and Work Center Resource Calendars Using the Redwood User Experience

The production calendar defines the operating times for shifts within a manufacturing calendar associated with the plant. If specific work centers have override calendars, you can also view the production calendar for an individual work center.

Production supervisors need the flexibility to adjust shift operating times by creating shift exceptions within the production calendar.

With the modern Redwood user experience, you can now seamlessly view production calendars and create shift exceptions for improved scheduling and efficiency.

The Work Center Resource Calendar defines the operating times for shifts of a specific resource within a work center.

Production supervisors need the ability to adjust resource operating times by creating work center resource exceptions. This functionality is accessible through the Manage Work Centers task in the Work Definition work area or the Manage Work Center Resource Calendar task in the Work Execution work area.

With the modern Redwood user experience, you can now seamlessly view work center resource calendars and create resource exceptions for enhanced scheduling flexibility.
