Questions & Answers

Q: Is there a way that I can change the labels from Monday-Day,Monday-Late...... to the actual names of the shift? This makes scheduling much easier for us.

A: The Format Print sheet is not protected and once you have used the Format Print function you can then select and edit any cell on the sheet ie change Mon-Day to what ever you like. On the input sheet the label is preset and locked related to the shift time (it could be changed with some programming work).

Q: Do you have a version or a reverse view of shift scheduler that looks like the attached, i.e. it has the positions and then allocates staff to those positions.

Q: I am trying the Shift Scheduler but cannot figure out what the meaning of the Staff Roster Period Limit and Staff Shift Limit variables?

A: Staff Roster Period Limit is the maximum number of hours any staff member can work during the Roster period. For example if the roster covers 1 week and staff can only work a maximum of 40 hours per week then set the Staff Roster Period Limit as 40. Staff Shift Limit is the number of hours any staff member can work in a single shift. For example if staff can only work a maximum of 8 hours in a shift then set the Staff Shift Limit as 8.

Q: We are in need of a custom schedule. We need a schedule that can encompass one ten hour shift (7a-5:30p), two eight hour shifts (1 7a-4p & 1 8:30-5p), one call dog shift, which means you only take call 5p-7a during the week and not work days during the week your on call dog. We also need to be able to delineate who is on call throughout the week and weekend. There is always four people on call 7 days a week 365 days a year. So not only do we schedule shifts, but call schedules as well(regular call and call dog). Can your programs autotrack and autopopulate?

A: You should be able to set up our Shift Scheduler to handle you requirements by defining each requirement as a shift. The schedule is automatically filled (populated) when you Build Shift and tracks employee hours. We can refine it to suit any additional requirements. You can download the software and give it a test run from https://bizpep.com/shiftscheduler.html .
