# Schedule a task whose value has an expiry window

Illustrative planning brief; no automatic product import.

Synthetic planning case: A two-day preparation task has a receiving opportunity at the end of model day three. A higher-scored routine task needs three days and has no deadline inside the next five days. Both use the same sole resource.

## Decision

If the time-limited opportunity is an accepted obligation, doing the routine task first would make preparation finish at day five and miss it. Review sequencing before following the score order.

## Owned work

- Confirm real expiry meaning
  - Owner role: Receiving owner
  - Acceptance evidence: The preparation output must be usable by day three; a label alone is not the requirement.
- Compare both orders
  - Owner role: Planner
  - Acceptance evidence: One order meets both stated windows and the score-first order misses preparation.
- Agree the timing tradeoff
  - Owner role: Decision owner
  - Acceptance evidence: Sequence reflects the accepted receiving windows without inventing value beyond expiry.

## Workflow

1. Confirm real expiry meaning. Check: The preparation output must be usable by day three; a label alone is not the requirement.
2. Compare both orders. Check: One order meets both stated windows and the score-first order misses preparation.
3. Agree the timing tradeoff. Check: Sequence reflects the accepted receiving windows without inventing value beyond expiry.

## Judgment

Opportunity timing is a supplied rule, not a claim of actual commercial value or a promised deadline.


## Filled manual planning note

If the time-limited opportunity is an accepted obligation, doing the routine task first would make preparation finish at day five and miss it. Review sequencing before following the score order. Routine-first uses days zero to three, then preparation to five. Preparation-first finishes preparation at two and routine at five under the supplied exclusive-resource model. Opportunity timing is a supplied rule, not a claim of actual commercial value or a promised deadline.


## Workflow questions

### Must every expiring opportunity outrank everything?

No. First confirm it is an accepted obligation and consider all competing required windows.

### Can we overlap the two tasks?

Not with the same exclusive resource in this model; extra eligible capacity would change the assumptions.

## Product connection

### Inspect the invented case records

Task | Model duration | Receiving window | Finish if routine goes first
--- | --- | --- | ---
Preparation | 2 days | By day 3 | Day 5: misses
Routine | 3 days | No deadline through day 5 | Day 3

### Reasoning

Routine-first uses days zero to three, then preparation to five. Preparation-first finishes preparation at two and routine at five under the supplied exclusive-resource model.

### Bounded result

If the time-limited opportunity is an accepted obligation, doing the routine task first would make preparation finish at day five and miss it. Review sequencing before following the score order.

### Distinct decision

The artifact compares sequence feasibility when one accepted outcome has a genuine expiry window.

### Limits

Opportunity timing is a supplied rule, not a claim of actual commercial value or a promised deadline.
