Hi Mike,

Thanks for your help. If you consider our situation from the
beginning, the repetition job environment, the information for total
labor time in the coming weeks, would you help me to figure out a
better way to make the schedule? I am thinking probably you would have
an efficient way to do this, instead of assigning individuals or max
unit of groups to tasks.

Thanks,
Tracey
