Preassemble groups of resources that are always together for intraday scheduling. Crew scheduling allows you to define a group of resources who are scheduled for the same work during a period of time. Typically, a crew meets at a location in the morning, shares a vehicle, and is together all day from job to job. Companies focused on services that generally require teams of resources to accomplish jobs will often predefine a crew, a set of resources that stick together all day.

Sample scenarios:

• Lead technician and apprentice (for example, HVAC)
• Maid services
• Sanitation services
• Moving services
• Landscaping
• Hood and grease trap cleaning

Crews are assembled with date effectivity, enabling a crew to be assembled for as long or as little time as you choose.
