There will be times when we need to move workers around, from one house to another, or remove them from the schedule completely, even after we’ve made our perfect calendars. While QSP can’t make those phone calls for you to get shifts covered, it can make it more simple to update those changes on your schedules using the Schedule and Remover Worker functions, as you’ll see in this tutorial. These functions are different than just simply editing multiple shifts that contain identical information (go here for that tutorial), because you are able to replace or remove workers from nonidentical shifts in mass. Sched on!

 

Life is pretty messy, even with extensive planning and preparation, we can always account for something unexpected to happen. Our industry especially, as joyous as it is, still has to manage people who are serving our people. Well, lucky for you schedulers, QSP can handle messes and mistakes with it’s fast and effective “delete” option. In this tutorial, you will discover how to delete shifts, delete entire calendars, and delete lots of specific appointments. Note: when you delete a shift from a client calendar, it will automatically delete the corresponding and linked shift on the worker’s calendar (or vice versa). Be strategic when you delete things because there is no “Undo” option. Keep in mind that as helpful as it is to have an easy delete option and to start over, many scheduling scenarios can also be Edited to achieve an intended result.

 

Time is valuable, whether it’s waiting in line for coffee or at a stop light, the less time you have to spend doing it, the more time you have for what’s really important. So many facets of QSP are geared for this type of payoff: low time investment, high quality return. This tutorials explains how to edit multiple shifts at once that are identical in start and end time, service type, and worker. Often times these edits take place when a change needs to be made to an already created shift or shifts. Perhaps it’s a start time that needs to be changed, or a worker that needs to be unassigned. Whatever the case, when they’re identical and numerous, the editing is simple, saving you time in case time is ever wasted waiting on a stop light.
