How To: Firefighter Shift Scheduling – Part 4

April 25th, 2012 by Dan - TexCom Technical Operations

Once you have these settings to your liking and the first option to Yes, you can start allowing users to sign up for shifts. Once again you will see an additional link after selecting Shift Schedule in the Zones called Sign Up & Availability.

A Combination of Both…

If you have a combination of full-time and part-time users, you can use both options seamlessly. This works well if you have some full time personnel on a shift but also allow an additional user to increase staffing. In the previous post I had specified this shift had two people at Station #1 and one at Station #2. I added one full-time user to each station. Since I am also allowing part-time sign up, you will notice there is one Open slot listed for Station #1 that users can now sign up for.

Shift User Signup

In our next post we will cover shift changes which allow for making individual changes due to sick time, vacation time, and trade shifts.  Feel free to set up one of your own shifts and comment below if you have any questions.
