Equivalent positions
There may be instances where your event will require staff in certain positions - eg;
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 |
---|---|
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 |
---|---|---|
Medic | 3 | 3 |
Advanced Medic | 1 | 1 |
Total | 4 | 4 |
The following people are rostered;
Name | Position |
---|---|
Jane Smith | Medic |
Stephen Jones | Advanced Medic |
Sarah Kim | Advanced Medic |
Kate Boise | Advanced Medic |
Total | 4 |
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.
