Step by step usage
Enter actual period data
Replace the sample values with your own business's data for the same date range and the same unit of measure.
Read the result and assumptions together
The tool converts the day, shift preference and time limit selected by the administrator into a UTF-8 secure sharing link. The form result is a planning entry, not a shift assignment. Examine the result not just as a single number but for its sensitivity to change in inputs.
Save the scenario and measure again
Once you make a decision, write down the input and the date. Consider availability and preference separately. Set a deadline for response. Renew the old sharing link in the new plan period.
