Confirm changes before saving the schedule board settings
We often see users accidentally changing settings on a schedule board, affecting other user of the same board. Unfortunately even education does not work, as it's not possible to track who did the last changes. Suggestion: Have users confirm that they would like to save the updated settings or...
Filter Ratings based on Proficiency Model
At the moment when you are using the Schedule board and select a Proficiency Model and then go to select the Ratings it will bring up the ratings for all Proficiency models rather than just the models that have been selected
Hi Mark, Thank you for your feedback.
There is no direct relationship between a Skill/characteristic and Ratings of a Proficiency/Rating model. Could you please provide little more context around your scenario here?
Sincerely,

Updating labels in the Schedule Assistant Filter Layout are respected in the Schedule Assistant
Currently there is an inconsistency between the Schedule Board and Schedule Assistant when updating the labels of the fields in the Filter via the Filter Layout configuration. For example:
Personal views on Schedule Board
Our customer works with a lot of dispatches. Each dispatcher has their own group of requirements (based on i.e. Territory or Resource groups). These dispatchers would like to set up their on personal Schedule Board with their pre-filled Requirement views. Currently they cannot do that, because: ...

Provide more flexibility on schedule board resource icons, map icons, tool tips and color-coding
Today we have resource images for contacts and users, on the map pin and truck icons. Suggestion: Provide resource images for all resource types. Consider the new image field type instead of the entity image if that adds value. Instead of map and truck pin, provide more flexibility on icon and...

Provide filters for organization units to be shown on the map view
Currently the system shows all organziation units of e.g. whole Europe.
What if I only need to see those which are related to my country, territory or business unit?

Nightshift calendars visulize the schedule board from 8:00 until 17:00
It should be possible to show only the schedule board from 8:00 until 17:00 for planners that specifically do the planning for night shifts. When I now try to configure this the system says it is not possible because the start date should be bigger than the end date.
