Scheduler

The Scheduler provides a single, easy-to-use graphical ‘planner' that can, subject to access permissions, be viewed and edited across the Practice network. Being fully integrated with PriDoc’s Personnel and Payroll modules, the Scheduler is a unique – and exceptionally powerful – tool which provides a fantastic combination of features and benefits:

• graphical daily 'attendance' views of staff and Partners’ normal shift/session patterns are provided

• details of any overtime, or any absence (e.g. holiday, time-off-in-lieu, sickness, maternity/paternity/adoption, training/sabbatical, unauthorised, etc.) are added directly onto the daily 'attendance' views - which then provide the 'complete picture' of the day - so for example overtime can be seen alongside any absence that may have caused the overtime to be required

• shift/session patterns can repeat over any number of weeks

• employees with more than one job can have separate shift patterns that will be validated against each other (so they are never scheduled to be in two places at once or the same place twice!)

• GP and Nurse Locum sessions can also be added directly onto the daily 'attendance' views, and these can be assigned to specific, named locums

• individual shifts/overtime/sessions can have an assigned 'hourly rate multiplier' (e.g. double time on Saturdays), and/or an assigned budget, and/or an assigned Workplace (for multi-Site Practices), and/or an assigned Practice (for multi-Practice employers)

• Holiday entitlement balances are automatically monitored (and following changes to an employee’s weekly hours, the system will automatically re-calculate (pro rata) his/her annual holiday entitlement)

• TOIL (time-off-in-lieu) balances are automatically monitored

• graphical daily, monthly and yearly views can all be filtered for user-defined groups of staff and/or Partners and/or Locums

• comprehensive 'totals' analysis for normal work, overtime, and each type of absence, for any given data range, in terms of hours or sessions, is automatically provided
