Rotas and shifts
Planning
Plan your rotas super quickly and easily with AceRota. The rota builder is user-friendly, guiding you through the creation of your rota. For example, it will tell you who on your team is available to work. Straight after publishing a new rota, the relevant employees get a notification and can see their new shifts.
The rota builder has many tools to allow you to generate your rota in the fastest possble time:
- you can use existing rotas as templates, and create new rotas based on them
- you can copy/paste any part of any rota
- you can generate as many rotas as you like - for each site and department, for example
Everything in one place
AceRota is efficient because everything you need to plan your rotas is available in the rota builder. The rota builder will help you schedule your employees’ shifts and will tell you:
- staff availability: you know when everybody is working and when they are off
- holidays: you know when people are on holiday
- contracts: you can keep track of people’s hours and make sure they’re not over or under their contracted number of hours
Unexpected changes
If a team member is unavailable to work at the last minute, the rota builder will help you to find cover. You can also send a request via the rota builder, so another colleague can pick up the shift. The rota will be automatically updated, and you’ll get a notification as well. You can set rules about who can cover which shift.
Sharing
With AceRota, staff and management are kept fully up to date. Your staff get notifications about rota changes or new shifts; you get notified when employees are off-sick, and you approve or reject holidays requested by your staff.
There’s also an option to allow your team to swap their shifts around. AceRota keeps you fully updated and notified of any changes.
Sharing doesn’t mean everybody can see everything, of course. You decide who can see what. For example, a manager will be able to plan rotas for their team, whilst team members with low rights access can clock in/out or book time off.
Cost under control
The rota builder provides a clear view of labour costs.
