Coverage Page
The Coverage page displays current coverage information for each job you are qualified to work for the current week. Coverage information is displayed by zone or shift span for those jobs. You can use coverage information to support your decision making when planning time off and when seeking other shifts.
The Coverage page is divided into three main sections:
- The top of the page includes:
- Controls for changing the week displayed for your schedule; the week that contains the current date is displayed by default.
- Based on your system configuration, this section can also display:
- A button to open your location schedule
- A button to display a list of requests you can submit
- The middle section includes:
- Controls that allow you to filter coverage information based on date, assignment, job, and span. Coverage information is updated only after you click tap Apply.
- An information icon (
) that displays a schedule legend when you
click tap
it.
- A Loaded: field that displays the time that schedule and coverage information were last updated.
- The bottom section includes:
- calendar that displays your scheduled events (shifts and paycodes) for the selected week and
- Coverage information for selected job and the spans defined for those jobs
Coverage information is summarized using:
- Color coded symbols
- A numeric abbreviation of scheduled versus required staffing (for example, if a shift requires 5 staff but only 3 are scheduled, the abbreviation is displayed as "3/5")
- Wording that indicates whether a shift is fully staffed, overstaffed, or understaffed
