The Min and Max setting allows you to set the minimum and maximum hours required in a department each day of the week. Using this function will affect forecasted productivity, because you are manipulating hours needed on slow and high activity days, so consider carefully before activating. You can activate Min or Max or both.

As a general rule, minimum hours are the hours needed if the hotel has only 1 room occupied. (Sometimes used for Front Office that has to be manned 24 hrs regardless of occupancy.)

Maximum is the maximum number of hours in a day if ALL the employees in a department are working the maximum hours possible (including overtime if allowed). This is sometimes used for Kitchen or M&E Operations that can have very high revenue on a day, but there is still a limit to how many people can be working.
