Business Rules

The Labor Scheduler's Business Rules allow you to set defaults for your weekly work schedule. The Auto-Scheduler uses these business rules to determine default settings.

Set the Minimum Shift length, and determine how the auto-scheduler calculates when an extra employee needs to be added to a weekly schedule based on Dollar Sales, Customers or Items. You determine a threshold to adding an additional employee. For example, you set $100 as the Minimum Hourly Dollar Sales Per Employee. When the setting of $100 is exceeded, another employee will be added.

Determine when Meal Breaks are to be scheduled based on a Minimum Shift For Required Meals, and determine the length of the meal break.




Events

Events are listed in the Business Rule maintenance screen. Events may be modified, added or deleted here. Adding an event to the Business Rules allows you to specify the Description, Event Day, Starting and Ending Time, and POS Security Level. The Sales Entry option allows the auto-scheduler to know if a job already scheduled as a fixed event can cover a calculated requirement for a sales associate. This unique feature allows you to provide a minimum number of employees by scheduling a sales associate "fixed" event with a "fixed" event for the key-holder. For example, use this when 2 minimum employees are required at closing. If the auto-scheduler determines a need for a sales associate during this time it will cover the first calculated sales associate with the "fixed" event job that can perform sales, and then create new sales associate events as needed to cover any additional calculated requirements for sales associates.
