      How to use the Auto-Roster Tool?

      This article will show you how to use the Auto-Roster Tool in Alkimii Team.

      This is only a guide to the auto-roster tool, Alkimii will contact you prior to any public holiday with more specific information. 

      • Navigate to "Week Costs" using the Mega Menu.

      • Use the date filter to open the date on which the Public Holiday falls
      • Scroll to the bottom of the roster and click "Remove Sign Off" 

      Ensure that the week prior to the Public Holiday is marked as PAID in Alkimii

      • Navigate to Payroll
      • Select Week Costs
      • Use the date filter to open the week of the public holiday. 
      • Click Public Holidays 

      If there is more than 1 public holiday in a week, you will need to apply "Public Holiday" to the first along with any edits before proceeding to the additional Holidays dates. 

      • Select "Preview"  
      • In the preview screen, you will see the accruals for each staff member. 
        • You will also see the shift length they will be rostered for by the auto-roster tool. 

      If your week prior to the Public Holiday is not marked as Paid, you will not have the ability to preview. 

      • If you are happy with the shift lengths in the Preview screen, you can apply the auto roster tool for all staff by clicking "Auto-Roster" at the bottom of the screen. 
      • Allow the auto roster to run
      • Click "Reload" to see Public Holidays applied
      • If you wish to Undo the Autoroster once the reload has been completed, click preview. 
        • Scroll to the bottom of the page.
        • Select UNDO autoroster.
