A practical planning example

A regional organisation selects one training team and one shared facility for a two-week pilot instead of importing every department at once.

Set up this workflow

  1. Choose a representative planning problem, an owner and an independent reviewer where needed.
  2. Import a small validated dataset and record the clashes that staff already know about.
  3. Compare candidate drafts, verify exports and document the steps required to publish a usable plan.

Prepare, review and publish

Choose your dates, timezone, open days and breaks. Set person and resource profiles before entering activities. Generate a candidate draft, inspect unplaced work and conflicts, and compare alternatives where useful. Keep manual review in the process: a quality score helps compare candidates and is not a guarantee of an optimal schedule.

What to check before rollout

Use agreed acceptance criteria: correct activities, no unexplained conflicts, readable outputs and a clear revision process. Confirm account scope and current limits before a large deployment.

Account access and outputs

Public demos use sample data. Creating workspaces and entering your own scheduling details require a verified email and active paid subscription. A verified email and active subscription are required for paid generation, publication and timetable exports. Paid access covers all five workspaces within your account scope. Use the live billing page for current pricing and available payment methods. Check exported PDF, Excel, Word or CSV files with the software your team uses before distribution.
