Part-time Staff : Features in TimeTabler
Features :
TimeTabler provides many features to help you achieve the best quality timetable even if you have many Part-timers and Job-Shares that you need to honour. This allows you to offer flexibility to your staff and still create a quality timetable for your students.
These screens and features help you to analyse the effect of your Part-time staff, so that:
- you can see which Days/Periods are most affected,
- you can see how your part-timers interact with each other,
- you can see which parts of your Curriculum Diagram will be most affected,
- you can see the effect of Part-timers on Blocks/Columns (Maths Sets, Option Blocks, etc),
- etc.

Examples:

PPA time:

Fortnightly timetables:
If you have a 2-week timetable, then to check for any differences on your schedule, between the availability of staff in Week-A and Week-B ... go to the Staff Timetable view at scheduling, tick "Show Staff Availability Palette" and then click:
