The Event Log can be thought of as something of a visual running log of all the scheduling operations performed in the system. It will track new-created assignments, modifications to assignments, cancelled assignments, and will display basic info about each assignment or change.
To get to the Event Log just click on the ‘Event Log’ button on the toolbar. This will open it up in the main window as shown below.
Each assignment is stamped with some important information when created:
- Time Requested
- The time of day the assignment was created or modified
- Assignment ID
- A unique identifier attached to each assignment for the system to keep track of
- Action Performed
- The action that has been performed on the assignment. These actions include the assignment being opened, requested, assigned, approved, or closed, with appropriate colour-coding
- Date/time to/from
- The date range of the assignment (start/end dates)
- Personnel type
- The type of personnel needed to work the assignment
- Client
- The client or location where personnel are needed to work
- Assigned personnel
- If assigned, the name of the personnel member confirmed to be attached to the assignment will be listed here
- Who requested it?
- The user (Administrator or Client) that performed the action.
Clicking on the Assignment ID or status will bring up the Assignment
Details for that assignment (see pg 18, the section “Covering an
Assignment” for more info), while clicking on a personnel member’s name
will bring up their Personnel profile.
You can filter the event log by client, personnel, or personnel type to make things easier, and the calendar control on the left can change the date range that it will display events for.
