Shifts

Each rota can be broken down into multiple shifts.

Each shift will have it's own targets independent of the overall rota targets.

Targets are split into employee hours, employee spend and sales/spend.

Each shift has it's own employee role requirements, allowing you to specify how many employees are required for each job role.

Multiple shifts can be scheduled for each day allowing you split the day into as many shifts as necessary.

Misc.

See below for an overview of permissions, audit/history and searching of rota data.

Permissions

Access to manage staff rotas can be controlled via the permissions editor on the admin screen.

Due to the sensitive nature contained in staff rotas (costs etc), we have opted to make very few assumptions about how you wish to grant access to users. So you will almost certainly want to grant a higher level of access than what is provided out of the box.

Prior to managing permissions, we recommend that you take a look at the permissions overview.

Audit/History

Changes made to any part of a staff rota are recorded for audit/history purposes.

You can view the audit/history log by going to the history page.

Due to the nature of the audit/history log and the expansive list of permissions access to log is limited to the Primary account holder and any super users.

Search

The staff rota management area also allows users to search for staff rotas using a variety of filters; they can then group the results based upon various details.

Search for staff rotas:

  • By their assigned status.
  • By the department/departments for which each rota belongs to.
  • By which employees are assigned to the rota.
  • By from/to date.

Group rota search results:

  • By their status.
  • By their associated departments.
