Drive Strategic Goals Through Scheduling Objectives
Objectives score eligible candidates based on business priorities. Planners and administrators set scheduling objectives to optimize scheduling.
Create scheduling objectives that reflect your scheduling goals. When a planner matches workers to shifts, the scheduling engine gives each objective equal weight.
-
From Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter
Scheduling, and then select Objectives. - Click New.
- Name your scheduling objective and add a description.
-
Select the type of scheduling objective. If the objective type uses fields, enter values in the fields that appear.
We predefine these objective types.
- Click Save. Or to save and add more objectives, click Save and New.
Create a scheduling objective of type Balance Shifts. The fields define how many days to consider when balancing shift assignments. For example, if you enter 10 in Days Before Shift and 50 in Days After Shift, the scheduling tool balances assignments across a 60-day window that spans 10 days before each shift and 50 days after it.
