Work Planning

Cellar and bottling work, scheduled against real capacity

See every job in the cellar in one place. Schedule moves, additions, filtering, and bottling runs against the hours your crews and equipment actually have. Turn a routing into a fully sequenced chain of work in one click, and spot the overloaded week months before it arrives. The whiteboard can finally retire.

Work Planning with Claret

Feature Overview

Find the overloaded week before the floor calls about it

The capacity heatmap shows load against available hours for every crew and piece of equipment, from this week in days out to a full twelve months. Each resource follows its own weekly calendar, with seasonal hours for harvest and one-off exceptions for shutdowns and holidays. Overloaded weeks show up red. Click any cell to open that week and rebalance the work. Not sure yet which line will take a run? Plan it against the group and commit to a specific line later.

From a due date and a quantity to a full chain of work

A bottling run is never one job. Pick a routing, a due date, and a quantity, and Work Planning builds the whole chain backward from the due date: one work plan per step, assigned to your standard crews and equipment, with hours estimated from your standard times. A live preview shows every step before you commit. One click, instead of typing out every step by hand.

Drag one step and the chain moves with it

Work never happens exactly on schedule. On the timeline, drag a job to a new date and the steps that depend on it move too. Before anything saves, Claret shows you exactly which plans will move, with their old and new dates. Work that is already started or finished stays put. Then flip back to the heatmap and watch the hot week cool down.
