There is still a big difference between starting at 7 AM or starting at 9 PM, so (for me) even if I don't have to stagger the credit, I would still stagger by TAFB or check-in, and check-out. I definitely think it is "amazing" that I can sort pairings for display by every parameter possible, but for bidding I have to stagger with multiple bidlines, as opposed to being able to bid:
Award pairing if 4 day, sort by latest check-in, or something like that.
There definitely has not been a single line since I have been at NK that has all my requirements, so I am exited about PBS.
You have a very positive outlook, so I think you will very much enjoy this software.
So basically there are a couple of ways to accomplish what you want to do, Myabe a cascade like this:
Award pairings if average daily credit > 6:00 if pariing check in time is after 17:00 if pairing length =4
Award pairings if average daily credit > 5:30 if pariing check in time is after 17:00 if pairing length =4
Award pairings if average daily credit > 5:00 if pariing check in time is after 17:00 if pairing length =4
Award pairings if average daily credit > 4:59 if pariing check in time is after 17:00 if pairing length =4
Award pairings if average daily credit > 6:00 if pariing check in time is after 14:00 if pairing length =4
Award pairings if average daily credit > 5:30 if pariing check in time is after 14:00 if pairing length =4
Award pairings if average daily credit > 5:00 if pariing check in time is after 14:00 if pairing length =4
Award pairings if average daily credit > 4:59 if pariing check in time is after 14:00 if pairing length =4
and so on and so forth however you like. there are a few other ways to approach this (especially if we had the Redo from line feature) but this is probably the most straight forward non confusing way.
I have 60+ lines in my group. I've seen delta and jetblue guys with 120+ lines in their group, so don't worry.
It does suck if the time changes though, I wish navbblue had referential bidding. but it's ok we will make do!
