In the Timetable object shifts can be specified and then the Timetable can be assigned to flow objects in the model. The shifts in the Timetable specifies at what points in time during a week objects should be available/operational. Several Timetables can be added in a model.
To make a flow object follow a Timetable use the timetable setting of the flow object.

Unplanned state represents time between shifts and break state represents time within a shift specified as break. The portions of the time that the object have spent in either state can be found in the results under Utilization .
