Employee Availability

REVISION

The main screen for Availability updates by casual staff has been revised and simplified.

• Fixed Day off now shows as NOT Available
• Available and Part-Available now show as I CAN work, with Part-Availables having timings with it.
• The Calendar view reflects these new terms.

There is now another way for staff to update their availability. It utilises the edit diary popup window. It's very simple to use.



WHO DOES THIS AFFECT?
Rotas with casual staff who update their availability.

Employees available for overtime

NEW FEATURE

Do you sometimes have overtime shifts to fill? Not sure who wants to do them? Now your staff can signify they are willing to work overtime on days they specify. They do this with a new item in the staff's Personal Diary Edit window.

If an employee checks the box, an entry for Part Available is created for that day, regardless of whether a shift has been given to them or not. For example, it could be a weekend day, that would otherwise be a rest day.

NOTE: This option is specifically designed for permanent staff. The availability of Casual/Contractor staff is handled separately. See other entries in this blog.
