Schedule and time

Use the schedule board to monitor coverage during the week

Use the schedule board as a live manager view for coverage, not only as a one-time publishing surface.

Use Schedule during the week to spot thin coverage before it turns into a shift problem.

The board is still useful after publication because it gives managers a shared coverage view.

Quick facts

Start here

  • The schedule board is not only for the build phase.
  • Midweek review is useful when leave, call-outs, or demand changes the plan.
  • Coverage problems are easier to solve earlier in the week.

Step 1: Review the live week view

Open Schedule and review the current week as a manager, not only as a published artifact for staff.

The week view is a practical manager tool for spotting coverage gaps before the shift starts to break.

Step 2: Make quick corrections when coverage changes

  • If the week needs a correction, move into the schedule editor instead of working from memory.
  • Use leave and timecard context together when deciding how big the coverage problem really is.
When coverage changes, move into the editor so the correction is made in the real planning surface instead of by memory.
