Staffing by Activity Codes
The following is a summary of the Core Staffing by Activity Code feature. For more information, including detailed setup instructions, see the Core Staffing by Activity Code User Guide located on the Client Connections website.
Prior to Time and Attendance and Staffing and Scheduling version 09.00.02, Core Staffing was only done by coverage period. The needs appeared on the Self Schedule screen broken down by coverage period. The following image from the Self Schedule screen shows how the needs (by coverage period) appear.
The existing functionality does not change. However, beginning in version 09.00.02, Core Staffing can be done by activity code. The needs that are established appear on the Self Schedule screen broken down by activity code. This allows scheduling to be done by activity, rather than by coverage period.
It also eliminates the decimal values that can occur when a shift crosses into another coverage period. For example, the outlined cells in the previous image show that the employee's shift covers (partly or fully) three coverage periods. Even though this is correct, it can cause confusion.
The following image shows the same scenario using Core Staffing by Activity Code. The outlined cell indicates that one activity code (1000-8) is scheduled and two of those activities remain for someone to self schedule. The ToolTip also provides staffing details.
A negative value indicates understaffing.
A zero indicates full staffing.
A positive number, as shown in the following image (with the ToolTip), indicates overstaffing.
