Tracking |
|
Staff can request time off online. They can also see how many days they are allowed in the current year and the
actual dates of those taken and booked. 
The administrator can review each request alongside the staffing levels for that date period. The administrator can
then accept or decline the request. The website takes care of the rest, updating the calendar, notifying the staff etc.
|
| Broadcasting
Rotas |
|
therota.com keeps track of the date up to which the
rota
has been 'broadcasted'. The administrator can also work with a 'Settled Date'. This is the date up to which the
rota
-in-progress is being worked on and would become the next broadcast date when the information is ready. If a broadcasted
rota is changed the program prompts for emails and messages to
be sent to the affected staff.
