Due to it's flexibility Timezynk is used by organisations in various industries, for example, healthcare, recruitment & consulting, railway, hotel & restaurant, facilities management, etc.
While some do well with the default settings in Timezynk, others need to customize the system to suit their needs – and that works perfectly!
A hospital usually has varying shifts since they need to be available 24/7 and have on-call staff. An example of a hospital scheduling structure may include fields with information such as department, task, and the permissions of the employee on the shift. Adding a field for optional comments can also be a good idea if additional unique information needs to be included in the shift.
In the example above, Kalle is scheduled as a nurse that will work in Radiology between 15:00 - 00:00, and then have a break between 19:00 - 20:00.
If there is the need for several employees on the same shift, writing another number in the Count field will make it possible to book several users on this shift. In the example above, only Kalle is booked, and therefore the shift is fully booked and the bar is green.
