Equivalent positions

There may be instances where your event will require staff in certain positions - eg;

Position

Minimum

Maximum

Position

Minimum

Maximum

Medic

3

3

Support staff

1

1

Total

4

4

This works well if staff are assigned to those positions, however there is sometimes occasions where a staff member might need to be rostered based on their skills (and also may need to be invoiced/have payroll applied under different rates), however you wouldn't want to edit the event requirements each time this happens.

Example 1;

The event requirements are as follows;

Name

Position

Name

Position

Jane Smith

Medic

Stephen Jones

Medic

Sarah Kim

Advanced Medic

Total

3

In this example, Sarah has all the skills and qualifications to work as a 'Medic', but would like to be be rostered as a 'Doctor' (she also meets those requirements).

To achieve this, the 'Medic' event team/position should be setup as follows in the 'Equivalent teams/positions' box;

When setup in this way, people whom are rostered as 'Advanced Medic' and 'Medic (Paramedic)' will count towards the event-staffing requirements (such as in the above example of requiring 3 medics).

Example 2;

The event has the following requirements;

Position

Minimum

Maximum

Position

Minimum

Maximum

Medic

The following people are rostered;

Name

Position

Jane Smith

Medic

Stephen Jones

Advanced Medic

Sarah Kim

Kate Boise

Advanced Medic

As there are enough people rostered to the 'Advanced Medic' position, the surplus 'Advanced Medic' staff will be counted towards the 'Medic' position, meaning the event will be show as being adequately staffed.
