What is Prestige Scheduler?

Presenting a highly efficient and versatile electronic planning board designed specifically for web browsers, the EPB offers a clear visual display of your ongoing scheduled tasks. Each task is represented as a bar that accurately depicts the remaining hours required for completion, while also categorizing the workload into setup time, runtime, and cleanup time, known collectively as activities. These activities are conveniently color-coded and positioned at the bottom of each bar for straightforward identification. The central part of the bar reflects the current status of the task, conveyed through its designated color and the selected fields that detail the bar's content. Alongside the task bars, the EPB also incorporates down-bars that highlight intervals when resources are not available for production. You can create these down-bars for resources using downtime Proformas, and if you utilize Labor Tracking, dynamic down-bars are automatically produced according to labor force shift patterns. This thorough methodology guarantees that every element of scheduling and resource management is addressed efficiently, providing users with greater transparency and authority over their operational timelines. Furthermore, this adaptability allows users to customize their planning experience to better suit the unique demands of their projects.
