Multi Planner by FacilityApps enables simultaneous planning
The solution for efficient workforce planning: FacilityApps employee planner board
Organizations constantly face the challenge of managing workforce planning efficiently, clearly, and flexibly. With the employee planner board from FacilityApps, this becomes easier than ever. This solution provides a clear and intuitive overview of all employees and their tasks, enabling planners to act quickly and effectively, even in complex planning situations.
Clear and intuitive overview of employees and tasks
The Employee Planner Board displays all employees clearly on the left side of the screen, with their scheduled tasks shown directly next to them. This provides a complete overview at a glance of:
-
Employee availability
-
Current tasks
-
Potential gaps due to sickness or leave
Tasks left unassigned due to employee absence are automatically highlighted. Planners can easily reschedule these tasks with a simple drag-and-drop action, allowing for fast responses to unexpected changes.
Easy registration of sickness and leave
Sickness and leave can be recorded directly in the planner board and are immediately visible. This prevents confusion and ensures that no task is overlooked.
Visual indicators:
-
Red: Sickness
-
Yellow: Leave
This makes it easy for planners to take immediate action.
Advanced filter options for efficient planning
The planner board offers advanced filtering options, allowing planners to quickly switch based on: employee, task type, and availability.
This ensures planners always make the right decisions and guarantees efficient work even in complex planning situations.
Multi-Planning: real-time collaboration without errors
A unique strength of FacilityApps is the ability for multiple planners to work simultaneously:
-
Live updates: All changes are immediately visible to colleagues, preventing double entries and scheduling conflicts.
-
Task blocking: Tasks scheduled by one planner are automatically marked and blocked for others.
-
Collaboration indicator: The top right of the planner shows who is actively planning, including initials, so it is clear who is making changes and duplicate work is avoided.
This real-time collaboration speeds up the planning process and increases team efficiency, even in busy or complex situations.
Flexible access for planners and regional managers
The planning functionality is available to planners with access to all objects and can also be used by regional managers to plan effectively within their own region. Regional managers maintain a complete overview of all employees, including those from other regions, allowing staff to be deployed across regions.
Visual color coding for clarity:
-
Gray: Tasks outside the manager’s own region. Visible but cannot be edited.
-
Red: Employee sickness
-
Yellow: Leave
This color coding makes it immediately clear which tasks are available for planning, which tasks are limited in visibility, and which require attention. It ensures cross-regional planning remains organized and prevents mistakes.
