The collaboration performance in aspects of work assignment, work discussion, and personal conflict have influenced on the job motivation. Production scheduling in aspects of completion time, due date and release date have influenced the collaboration performance. Production Scheduling aspects of completion time, release date, and due date have influenced the job motivation.
