At the top of the plan you:

  • Specify the number of hours per week, this is used for the Hours Used And Remaining report.
  • Enter the Total Hours Agreed for the service, this is used for the Hours Used And Remaining report.
  • Easily assign a manager from the list of Roster workers on the system.

To create a plan line (a service schedule) click on the plus icon Icon plus.PNG. You will be presented with a new plan line to configure:

  • Start Date - Enter the start date of this schedule. When confirming work this looks at the start and end dates of the plan line. If the schedule has not started a job will not be created.
  • End Date - Enter the end date of this schedule. When confirming work this looks at the start and end dates of the plan line. If a schedule has ended then a job will not be created.
  • Rate Selection - If you are using the Invoicing Module select the rate to be charged for the selected service.
