The Min and Max settings allow you to set the minimum and maximum hours required in a department for each day of the week. Using this function will affect forecasted productivity, as you are manipulating hours needed on slow and high activity days. Consider this carefully before activating these settings. You can activate Min, Max, or both, depending on your needs.

As a general rule, minimum hours are the hours needed if the hotel has only one room occupied. This is sometimes used for departments like Front Office, which must be manned 24 hours regardless of occupancy.

Maximum hours represent the maximum number of hours in a day if all employees in a department are working the maximum possible hours (including overtime if allowed). This is often used for departments such as Kitchen or M&E Operations, which can experience very high revenue on certain days but still have a limit to how many people can work.

Note: Adjustments to Min/Max hours are applied to the selected year globally, not on a month-by-month basis. Ensure the correct year is selected before making changes.
