TEAM_ASSIGNMENT_SCHEDULE_CHECK

Description:

This parameter controls how schedule checks are performed when assigning employees to teams. This parameter accepts these values:

  • STRICT: Employees cannot be deleted from teams on the dates they are scheduled to the team (if they have work detail overrides or schedule detail overrides assigning them to the team). For example, if an employee is assigned to a team for the month of January, but only scheduled to the team for January 10th to the 15th, the team assignment cannot be deleted for the 10th to the 15th. Only the remainder of the team assignment can be deleted (January 1-9, 16-31).

    If an employee’s team assignment is updated (for example, the length of the assignment is reduced or the assignment is moved to another set of dates), the update is prevented if the employee is taken off the team on a date on which the employee is assigned to the team. For example, if an employee is assigned to a team for all of January and February, but only scheduled to the team for January, the team assignment can be updated so that the employee is only assigned to the team for January. The update would fail if the update tried to move the team assignment from March to April. The update would attempt to take the employee off during the month of January (when the employee is scheduled to the team).

  • SUPER STRICT: This option is similar to the STRICT option, but in addition to checking for overrides, the work details and schedule details are also checked. Use this option to prohibit the deletion of a team assignment if work details or schedule details related to that employee/team exist on the day in question. If such work details and schedule details do not exist, the deletion is allowed.

    For example, if an employee is assigned to a different shift pattern, generating work details, their existing team assignment can not be deleted on the affected dates.

  • ALLOW: Employees can be assigned to different teams, or deleted from teams, but on any date that the employee is scheduled to the team (if they have work detail overrides or schedule detail overrides assigning them to the team), temporary team assignments remain, and the system logs a warning. You cannot remove employees from a temporary team when they are scheduled to that team.

    For example, if an employee is assigned to a team for all of January and February, but only scheduled to the team for January 10th to the 15th, the team assignment can be deleted (or updated), but the employee will have temporary team assignments on the 10th to the 15th, and the system logs a warning. In another example, if an employee was assigned to home team A for the month and scheduled to that home team for the first half of the month, when a user attempts to change the employee’s home team from A to B, the change is allowed. A temporary team assignment for A occurs for the first half of the month.

  • NONE: No restrictions are imposed on deleting or updating teams.
