[en] Working time templates (WTT)
[en] The application is designed for users with production manager role or equivalent, to create, update, remove or deactivate existing templates. Users with production planner roles or equivalent can only view existing templates. The goal is to be able to set up calendars that can be reused on many resources, so that users don't have to do the same work on each resource. The calendar helps users plan according to resource capacity
