Added Staff Scheduling. Plan who works when, week by week, and publish the schedule when it is ready; nobody sees a draft.
- Plan by person or position, by day or by month. Add shifts in place, drag them to another day or person, change several at once, and undo. Copy a week, save week templates, repeat a shift, or auto-fill open shifts.
- Every assignment is checked against your rules: double bookings, time off, availability, positions, qualifications, rest, hours and overtime limits. A manager can override some rules with a reason, which is recorded.
- Set how many people you need and when, and see the times that are short.
- People who work shifts do not need to be team members. Invite them by email to see their own shifts, take open shifts, swap, ask for cover, say they cannot work, and ask for time off. They are told about changes by email and on their phone, with reminders before each shift.
- Reports cover hours, overtime, coverage and labour estimates, and compare the schedule with Time Tracking.
Published shifts also appear in the person's Personal Calendar, and Time Tracking can be started from a shift. Staff Scheduling is Coming soon and only Magpie administrators can open it.
