Plan your production week in one place.
See which jobs are scheduled for each day, where they stand, who is responsible for them and when they need to be completed.
The production schedule organizes every job by its print date, helping your team plan the week, identify busy days and respond quickly when priorities change.
Your entire production week at a glance
See every job scheduled for each day, together with its production status, department, assignee, item count and shipping method. You choose which of those appear on the card.
Production managers and employees can immediately understand what needs to happen today, what is coming next and which jobs require attention.
Reschedule jobs by dragging and dropping
Production plans change. When a job is delayed, brought forward or moved to another day, simply drag it to its new date.
The change is reflected wherever that production date is used, keeping the entire team on the same schedule.
Open every job directly from the schedule
Select a job to see everything required for production, including products, colours, sizes, quantities, print methods, print locations, files, mockups and notes.
There is no need to switch systems or search through messages and folders for production information.
Dates based on the way your shop works
Define your working days, production times and the actual lead times of your shipping methods.
PrintBlocks uses these settings to calculate relevant production and delivery dates without scheduling work for days when your shop is closed.
Identify busy days before they cause delays
The schedule makes it easier to see which days are filling up, which departments are already busy and where additional jobs can fit.
Your team can distribute work more effectively and respond before a production delay affects the customer.
Include special deliveries and collections
Deliveries handled by your own vehicle, customer collections and recurring delivery arrangements can be clearly marked on the schedule instead of blending in with standard jobs.
Keep the whole team on the same dates
When a date changes, sales, production and packing teams see the updated information. There is no need to maintain separate schedules or communicate every change manually.
Questions shops ask
Which jobs appear on the schedule?
The schedule displays production jobs according to their print dates. Each card can show the job's status, department, assignee, item count, shipping method and customer, and you choose which of those appear.
Can we move a job to another day?
Yes. Drag the job to a new date, and the change is reflected everywhere relevant in PrintBlocks. Moving jobs is its own permission, so a role can be given the schedule to read without being given the right to change it.
Can we open the full job from the schedule?
Yes. Open a production job directly from the schedule to review its products, quantities, files, mockups, notes and print details.
How are production and delivery dates calculated?
Dates are calculated according to your shop's working week, production lead times and the lead time of the selected shipping method.
What happens to the customer's date when a job moves?
You can use settings and automations to determine how a change to the production date affects the delivery date and the information shown to the customer.
Is this also a capacity-planning tool?
The schedule provides a clear view of the jobs and workload planned for each day, making it easier to identify where work is accumulating. It does not model machine hours or calculate capacity automatically: it shows you what a day holds and leaves the judgement to you.
Can we filter the schedule?
Yes. The schedule can be filtered by status, department, shipping method, the person an order or a job is assigned to, and whether a job is short of stock. A filtered arrangement can be saved as a view, so each team member opens the jobs relevant to them.
