Ensure two lessons scheduled on the same day are consecutive
Last updated: May 18, 2026
There are two approaches to making lessons consecutive, depending on whether you also need to force them into the same day.
Global rule — consecutive identical lessons
In Timetable constraints, activate Consecutive identical lessons. When this rule is active, if two identical lessons are scheduled on the same day, the scheduler will place them consecutively. This is the simplest option when you only need to ensure consecutive placement without restricting which day the lessons fall on.
Per-lesson approach — force same day and consecutive
If you need to force both the same day and consecutive placement, configure the following on the lesson's edit page:
- Min. days/week = 1
- Max. days/week = 1
- Max. lessons/day = 2
Setting Max. days/week = 1 forces both lessons into the same day. Combined with the Consecutive identical lessons global rule, the scheduler will then place them consecutively on that day.
