Default Finish product before scheduled downtime

Hello everybody,

I hope you can help me once again.

I use a TimeTable to control a process which is only available in various shifts throughout the week.
How can I make sure a FlowItem gets finished before the processor goes down due to the TimeTable setting?

Thank you in advance!

Best, Jens

I normaly use "Stop Input" as Down Function and "Resume Input" as Resume Function if I want to build such task.
