Schedule visualization

ARN catering production wave - Mon 4 May

A catering planner needs arriving flight demand turned into timed kitchen and ramp work, with the repeated prep, assembly, pack-out, and dispatch load visible on the actual work cells.

What changed after planning

The scheduler no longer draws sparse flight rows. Rows are the catering teams and cells that repeat work across the day, while Requirements mode shows the demand windows behind each placed block.
