Planning Jobs

Schedule jobs to team members and time slots on the Planner calendar.

Overview

The Planner page lets fabricators visualise jobs against resources (team members) and time (calendar), so the team can balance workload, sequence work, and see what's planned at every level of detail. Custom events can also be added to the Planner alongside scheduled orders.

👥 Access permissions

  • Only users with permission to access Planner can schedule jobs. Review user roles before granting access.

📍 Location in the app

  • Productivity > Planner


Planner views

The Planner can be displayed in two main views.

Team view

Displays a list of all users with their assigned jobs in time slots.

Label view

Displays jobs grouped by Label, using the labels configured in the workspace.

📝 Note

  • Planner views are only available when the calendar is on the Day or Week view.


Assign a job

Drag and drop an order onto the Planner calendar to schedule it.

📝 Notes

  • Drag and drop scheduling is only available in Team view.

  • If a job has a label assigned to it, it appears under the matching label row in Label view.
