Setting Required Staff & Daily Limits

Now that you've created your day types, you've got an opportunity to add in the required staff you need for that day and the Daily Limit.

Required Staff:

• The required staff is an internal number based on how many instructors that you anticipate needing for this particular day. This could be based on historical numbers plus a growth factor for this season.

• The Required Staff number will appear in the responses section of Availability to let you know how you're tracking with matching the number of staff signed up for that day vs the number of required.

Daily Limit:

• The number entered into this field will set a cap for how many instructors can select that date when they're completing their availability (on a first come/first served basis).

• The idea here is to ensure that you cap the days where you usually don't need a tonne of staff so that they have to commit to days when you actually need them.

• Ex: if the Daily Limit is set to 25, only 25 instructors will be able to sign up for this day in order to meet their commitment.

If the Daily Limit box is left empty, it will not cap the number of instructors that can sign up for the day.

Nice one! Calendars are the foundation for everything in Availability. Head to the next section, creating a group, if you're ready to move on.
