What to enter
Enter or select the following as requested: Work units / period; Standard minutes / unit; Scheduled hours / worker; Shrinkage; Planning buffer. Follow the units, valid ranges, examples, and options displayed beside each field.
What the result means
The workforce result estimates staffing capacity, full-time-equivalent coverage, shift feasibility, rest periods, or utilization from the hours, demand, and coverage assumptions entered. Check paid versus unpaid breaks, leave, training, overlap, local working-time rules, and whether every required role or shift is covered.
When to use it
Use this to compare staffing plans and identify potential coverage gaps. Validate against actual workload, employee availability, contractual terms, and applicable labor and rest-period requirements before publishing a roster.
