Rosters
Efficient rostering lies at the heart of effective shift planning, and EasyRoster’s cloud workforce management software excels in this area. With over 25 years of experience, EasyRoster has perfected its rostering technique to ensure optimal workforce scheduling. Planners can benefit from the tried-and-tested approach, which maximises efficiency and minimises scheduling conflicts.
User-friendly Interface
The cloud version of EasyRoster empowers planners with a user-friendly interface, enabling them to easily create and manage rosters. The intuitive drag-and-drop functionality simplifies the process, allowing for quick adjustments and modifications. Planners can allocate personnel to specific shifts, taking into account factors such as skills, availability, and preferences.
Advanced Features
Moreover, EasyRoster’s cloud software offers advanced features such as shift pattern templates, automated shift generation, and exception handling. This allows planners to create consistent and balanced schedules while efficiently handling any deviations or changes that may occur.
By leveraging EasyRoster’s robust rostering capabilities, organisations can optimise their workforce utilisation, reduce scheduling errors, and improve overall operational efficiency. With the cloud version, accessing and managing rosters becomes more seamless, enabling planners to focus on strategic decision-making rather than getting caught up in administrative tasks.
Staff Scheduling per Location
EasyRoster’s cloud workforce management software simplifies staff scheduling by offering location-specific scheduling capabilities. Whether you have multiple branches, sites, or departments, EasyRoster allows you to manage personnel shifts efficiently per location.
Manual Or Automatic Staff Scheduling
The cloud version provides the flexibility of manual or automatic staff scheduling. The simplest approach is to allocate personnel and utilise the “Automatic Scheduling” feature. This feature automatically generates schedules based on the allocated personnel, streamlining the process and saving time. Any exceptions or adjustments to shift patterns can be easily managed manually using the visually rich planning board.
Management Scheduling Reports
After scheduling for a specific period, EasyRoster’s management reports provide valuable insights to ensure efficient rosters that meet contracted service levels. These reports enable informed decision-making regarding roster optimisation, such as posting the appropriate number of personnel with the correct grades or ranks at each site. The management reports highlight overtime and non-productive time, allowing organisations to optimise profitability at every location.
With EasyRoster’s management reports you can view, manage and optimise staff scheduling across different locations, ensuring adequate coverage and optimised resource allocation. The system simplifies the reporting, enhances accuracy, and empowers managers to make data-driven decisions for efficient shift planning.
