Based on your rostering requirements, there may be some instances where restrictions & alerts need to be placed on people rostered, based on variety of circumstances.
This facility allows you to add restrictions based on several criteria;
By person - eg. Fred Smith isn’t allowed to be rostered to events
By type of person - eg. All volunteers
By event-type - eg. All festivals
By event teams/positions - eg. Any time someone’s rostered as a Team Member
By client - eg. Fred Smith isn’t allowed to be rostered to ACME Inc’s events
By venue - eg. Fred Smith isn’t allowed to be rostered to events at the MCG
By length of shift - eg. No-one can be rostered onto shift for more than 12 hours
These criteria can be setup in a number of ways - for example;
A new recruit, John Smith cannot be rostered more than 2 hours to events
No-one can be rostered to attend events associated with ACME Inc for more than 10 hours at a time
The option to either warn users, or prevent rostering (as shown below) is available.
Managing Rostering Restrictions
Rules can be setup to manage different restrictions in the following window - eg. to add a new restriction;
Existing restrictions can be listed as follows;
In the above example;
Hamish has been restricted from being rostered for more than 2 hours at a time whilst under supervision
Hamish is also not allowed to work at events booked by ACME Inc
Bill has requested to not be rostered to events at the Camberwell Oval
An expiry date can also be entered, which will mean the rostering restriction will no longer apply to shifts after that date (eg. someone can be rostered to events which are scheduled after that date. Shifts dated before the restriction expires will trigger the restriction).
A review date can also be added which will create an action item assigned to the person whom setup the rostering restriction - eg. if a restriction has been setup with the intention of it being reviewed in 2 months time.
A particular message can be included when the restriction is triggered - eg. “Sorry, new recruits can only work 2 hours at a time”.
