Viewing Temporary Patterns

Once an employee has a default availability pattern and a temporary availability pattern, the system changes slightly due to the addition of the Availability Pattern drop-down. You can use this drop-down to view the different availability patterns for an employee.

To view default or temporary availability patterns:

Select Maintenance > Employees > Employee Availability.
Select:
- The employee or employees for which you want to view information using the Employee lookup. Only the employees to which you have access will be displayed.
  
  Depending how your Selection Parameters page has been configured, you may be able to use the Location, Department, or Team lookups to select the users’ availability you want to view, instead of selecting individual employees.
- The team or teams for which you want to view information using the Team lookup and select the Include Sub Teams check box to view availability patterns for the sub team members related to the teams that you selected in the previous step.
Select the date for which you want to create a default pattern using the Effective Date lookup.
Select from the Order By drop-down list:
- Employee ID to display results ordered by employee IDs and in the order: Employee ID, Employee First Name, Employee Last Name, and Full Name.
- Last Name to display results ordered by employee last name and in the order: Employee Last Name, Employee First Name, Employee ID, and Full Name.
- First Name to display results ordered by employee first name and in the order: Employee First Name, Employee Last Name, Employee ID, and Full Name.
- Full Name to display results ordered by employee first name and in the order: Full Name, Employee First Name, Employee Last Name, and Employee ID.
Click Employee Availability Pattern.
Select the availability pattern you want to view from the Availability Pattern drop-down list.
The Availability Pattern drop-down list is displayed only if the employee has at least one temporary availability pattern in addition to the default pattern.

The Employee Availability Pattern page is displayed for the pattern that you specified.
