So I want 3/4-day trips that start as late as possible on Wednesday/Thursday, end as early as possible on Saturday/Sunday, and get as much credit as possible. I need to be of from Monday morning till Wednesday afternoon. Next month will be similar, but it could be off on Wednesday and Thursday.

The problem is Nav-Blue can sort, but not for bids, so I have to make multiple bid-lines for what should be an easy sort:
Award pairings with credit 21 hours
Award pairings with credit 20 hours
Award pairings with credit 19 hours
but also by check in, and check out.

If I want to "sort" by 1 hour credit change between 30 and 15, and a 2 hour windows for check-in/check-out (with an 8 hour blackout for night hours), I am looking at 15*8*8=960 bid-lines.

If next month the day changes by one, i have to change each individual line (I can select multiple line with the same parameters, but not edit those????)

What the....

At the very least I should be able to sort pairings by Credit/TAFB, and start late, arrive early. If there is anything a computer should be better than me it is sorting a big amount of data in an order I want.
