Call schedules are different from block schedules. In a block schedule, people are assigned to full rotations (e.g. “Week 1–4: Wards”). In a call schedule, assignments are time slots on specific days (e.g. “Monday 7a–7p”).

When to use call schedules

Use call schedules for call rotas and similar needs where you’re assigning people to time slots within days rather than to multi-week blocks.

Key ideas

  • Time slots — Day of week, start time, end time. You can define standard and extended slots.
  • Coverage and rules still apply within a call schedule.
You can create a call schedule from the same “Create schedule” or start flow — choose the Call schedule type. If your call schedule should respect who is on which rotation when, see Schedule links.
