The Daily Shift & Task
Schedulers allow you to assign your people to a shift, location, category and
up to 18 daily tasks each day for one week.
|

Our very popular Series 4 Complex Scheduler is the basis for the Daily
Shifts & Tasks spreadsheet with the added feature of the ability to assign
your people to daily tasks. This spreadsheet is ideal for libraries and
other businesses that need to assign their employees to daily shifts and
one or more daily tasks throughout the day. For
example your library staff may take turns at the front desk, answering
phones, returning books to the stacks, etc. You can even assign lunch breaks. In addition, the S8-Daily Shifts & Tasks
spreadsheets keep track of your daily and weekly payroll based on employee
hourly salary and scheduled hours including daily and weekly overtime pay.
Employees are assigned to daily shifts, locations and categories for one
week from drop-down menus of qualified individuals. Daily tasks are then
assigned to your employees via drop-down menus of available people. The
time-increment for assigning tasks is variable and can be set to anything
from 1 minute to 12 hours. Once someone is assigned to a task he/she
is removed from the menu for consideration for other tasks during the same
time-increment. This prevents you from assigning someone to overlapping tasks
during the day or to tasks before or after the employee is scheduled to be
at work.
Up to 50 tasks can be defined for each day, and they can be different
each day of the week providing you with the
opportunity to schedule 350 different tasks per week. Each employee can be
scheduled to up to 18 tasks per day giving you a great deal of flexibility
and control in scheduling your people.

"This spreadsheet has been
invaluable in assigning our librarians and support people to their numerous
tasks throughout the day" - Stanley in Albuquerque
|
|
This spreadsheet started out as a custom spreadsheet for a librarian based
on our Series 4 Complex Scheduler and has found wide acceptance in
scheduling multiple daily tasks in this niche market.

you planning to add your youth rules feature (like in the Series 4
