There are 5 employee profiles and 1 profile for material (Rooms, vehicles...):

I Individual modification : The collaborator will be able to fill in his planning
G Modification of group : The collaborator will be able to fill in the plannings of the collaborators of his group
P Planner : The collaborator will be able to fill in all the groups of which he has visibility and access certain statistics
A Administrator : Collaborator has full rights
M Material resource: Can be filled in by the profiles I, G, P and A if the administrator has authorized it
I Individual modification : The collaborator will be able to fill in his planning

Administration
Groups / services
Distribute your employees by group, which can represent a service, a geographical site... Optionally modify the division value of their day from 1 to 9 parts (morning, afternoon, etc.).Each employee can be assigned a limited view of these groups, or even only their planning if all groups are unchecked.
Give them the I profile, and assign the leader of each group as G or P. Limit the number of administrators, as this profile has full rights over the entire planning.
Material resources are particularly interesting because they function as a reservation. If an employee with an I profile reserves a vehicle, only they or a higher-profile user can modify or delete this reservation.
Administration
Custom events
Create and customize events: holidays, absences, sickness, on-call shifts... Each event can be associated with a category of profiles and have an initial value (e.g. 7.00 for 7AM), allowing you to create a holiday request accessible to all, and a holiday approval accessible only to administrators.Events can trigger an email notification to the person concerned, with a possible copy to another person (team leader, for example). Notifications are sent within 15 minutes after the event is assigned if the relevant month is not hidden, with reminders at D-7 and D-1 if the event was assigned early enough.
How much does a schedule cost
The schedule comes in 2 versions:- Premium: All options and without advertising for €20 + €1.00/line per year, a schedule of 30 employees will therefore come down to 50€ per year.
