They talked about this in the Webinar today. You are going to want to use the Quality of Life preference and use work periods and departures. There was a document she used to explain how to go about it and what the result would be but the document is not on PFC. Maybe they would email it to you.
I didn't pay much attention but I think you would want to select 2 or 3 work periods.
I don't remember how departures worked. One example had two work periods but one of the weeks had out and backs in them. Not something you would want as a commuter.
I think she said a work period was satisfied with multiple departures as long as there was less than 36 hours in base between trips. That could make for a few dead dead in MEM.
I think you would want the work period preference right after the avoid reserve preference.
