General Availabilities

General Availabilities are used to allow staff to log when they are generally available to work instead of having to pick a specific shift on Log Availabilities.

This way a member of staff can log their availability for part of a shift and admins can decide to amend the shift and allocate it to that staff member if they don't have anyone to fill the shift. 

Logged General Availabilities will also be taken into account when running the Availability Allocation Wizard by allocating any shifts that haven't got any specific availability logged but do fall into a staff member's General Availability parameters. 

To turn General Availabilities on go to Rota > Rota Settings > Rota Groups > Edit Rota Group > Web Settings, ticking the General Availabilities box will show the page on Staff Hub:

Next, log in to the Admin Staff Hub and go to Availabilities>Switch On/Off, click the button in the Log/Edit General Availabilities column to turn them on/off per Rota Group:

Once you have done this you can upload your shifts ready for your staff to log their General Availabilities.
