Staff Scheduler Features: Schedule By

Schedule By Option

DBI Staff Scheduler is unique in that you can elect to schedule by Staff or by Position/Task. DBI Staff Scheduler has been designed to accommodate either scheduling preference. If you schedule by staff for example, typically you will select your staff-members, assign them to a department, and then decide when and what they will be doing, i.e. create a time bar to define when the staff member will be working and select a position from the Position/Task list and drag it onto the time bar to define what position/task the staff member will be performing.

Schedule By Staff

This is very common; however, just as common are the organizations that prefer to schedule by Position/Task. In this case you define which positions/tasks must be performed in their respective departments, make the decision on when they will be performed by creating a time bar, and then decide who will be filling that position/task by selecting them from the Staff list and dragging/dropping them onto the time bar.

Schedule By Position

It really is a matter of what makes sense for your organization. The important thing to remember is that with dbi Staff Scheduler you can set up your schedule with either scheduling mode, scheduling by staff or position/task, and at any time toggle between these views.
