As an Administrator who uses requirement schedules to create employee schedules, you now have greater control over what happens to the requirement schedule when an employee’s schedule is cancelled.
When an employee’s schedule is cancelled, the requirement schedule can either:
- Be unassigned from the employee
- Remain assigned to the employee
If the requirement schedule is unassigned from the employee, you can assign the requirement to be worked by a different employee. However, if the requirement schedule remains assigned to the employee, the requirement cannot be reassigned to another employee.
Important Information
The Requirement Schedule will always be unassigned if the employee’s schedule is Reassigned, Unassigned, or Deleted.
How to Set it Up
Setup: Unassign the Requirement
If you want to unassign the requirement schedule when the employee’s schedule is cancelled:
Step 1: Go to the Options tab in Time & Attendance Parameters from the Avanti Desktop.
By default, this can be found in Time & Attendance >> Installation & Maintenance.
Step 2: Select Unassign Schedule from Requirements when Entries are Cancelled.
Step 3: If you use Schedule or Schedule Approval on the Avanti Self-Service Portal (ASSP), select Reload Settings in Administration Settings on the Avanti Self-Service Portal.
By default, this can be found in Administration.
Additional Information
If you’ve already moved to the latest ASSP, you won’t see Reload Settings; your changes will take effect within 5 minutes.
Setup: Requirement to Remain Assigned
For the requirement schedule to remain assigned to the employee after the employee’s schedule is cancelled:
Step 1: Go to the Options tab in Time & Attendance Parameters from the Avanti Desktop.
By default, this can be found in Time & Attendance >> Installation & Maintenance.
Step 2: Deselect Unassign Schedule from Requirements when Entries are Cancelled.
Step 3: If you use Schedule or Schedule Approval on the Avanti Self-Service Portal (ASSP), select Reload Settings in Administration Settings on the Avanti Self-Service Portal.
By default, this can be found in Administration.
Additional Information
If you’ve already moved to the latest ASSP, you won’t see Reload Settings; your changes will take effect within 5 minutes.
