WorkGuru provides two ways of scheduling projects and production jobs.
Which is the most appropriate for your workflow is dependent on if you need to schedule tasks and staff to the hour.
Gantt Scheduling
The Gantt schedule is the easiest way to schedule projects, tasks and staff. Gantt scheduling will display the daily breakdown of a project or production job's task schedule.
The gantt schedule is also available by viewed by staff member if staff have been assigned to scheduled project tasks.
Calendar Scheduling
Calendar scheduling requires more administration but allows you to schedule tasks and staff in much more detail, by allocating a specific time of the day the task is forecast to start and finish. This allows you to subscribe to the calendar schedule via a standard RSS/CalDAV feed into external calendar apps such as Google Calendar, Outlook or iCal. Staff can also access their calendar schedule via the WorkGuru mobile application.
Calendar scheduling also allows you to easily convert a schedule to a timesheet if tasks were done on time.
Staff Capacity
WorkGuru also provides visibility of the available capacity of staff during a selected period based on their calendar schedule via the Staff Board.
