Staff On-Duty Personnel in Partial Vacancy

Use the Copy feature in the Switch mode to move on-duty personnel into partial vacancies when the person’s shift duration exceeds the vacancy’s time period.

For example, a person is working on the roster as result of a shift trade. Another person has a partial leave code on the roster resulting in a partial vacancy. The person working the trade is assigned to work the partial. To accomplish this, do the following:

  1. Go to the Roster, select both the partial vacancy and the person who will be staffing that vacancy.
  2. Click on either the person or the vacancy to enable the Switch feature.
  3. In Mode, select Copy... and change the work code if needed.

    All working type work codes display in the work code menu box. Only non-working codes that are configured with the work code property But Still Available set are selectable in the work code menu box. Moreover, if the work code contains an Account Code you will need to edit that work code after the Switch to reset the account code if the account code is desired. To reset the account code, edit > select another code in the menu box then return to the desired work code then click Save, or type the account code in the field and click Save.

  4. Locate the person’s previous assignment and edit the time period if applicable.
