Conflict Checking 

Scheduling conflicts are constantly monitored and reported during the creation and maintenance of a schedule plan. 

Real Time Conflict Checking as you schedule

There are four kinds of scheduling conflicts being checked within the schedule plan:

1. Is the staff member already scheduled for any part of a time period to which you are trying to assign the person (has the staff member already been scheduled somewhere else)?

2. Has the staff member identified a Schedule Exception for any part of a time period to which you are trying to assign the person (Vacation request, Doctor’s Appointment, etc.)?

3. Does the proposed scheduling item conflict with the indicated Regular Days Off as described in the staff member’s profile (are you trying to schedule the employee on a regular day off)?

4. Does the proposed scheduling item conflict with the availability as described in the staff member’s profile (has the employee indicated they are available for the time in which you are trying to schedule them)?

NOTE: Conflict checking based on Schedule Availability can be turned on or off at a system level.

These scheduling conflicts are reported from within the schedule worksheet interface as the schedule plan is being built or when a schedule plan is copied to create a new schedule plan. When a conflict arises, the user is notified and given the option to override the conflict.
