Maybe this question will help someone, or perhaps it will just show my ignorance.
Why would scheduling assign rest that begins on day prior to an X day (say starting at 2000) and the reserve rest display shows that rest terminating at 0219 on the X day?
Seeing that could lead one to believe that the X day itself was not rest.
And would a single screen display of rest periods—including X or * day rests—help unmuddy the waters?
I’ve had them put some seemingly random rest periods after trips that ended on my last reserve day and extend into an X or golden day. Like your example they ended at 0041 or 0102. No idea why.
X days are already known to be rest so they don’t have to put anything specific in iCrew regarding rest for it to count as a prospective rest period.
A single screen would help. Along with a ton of other things that could be improved in iCrew.
