Hi - thanks for all your help. We are gearing up for our first July schedule! Very excited to see how things work. Two questions.

1) this was a temporary account by Nic Kanaan that we made into the main account. It will be used by 4 chiefs and passed on throughout the years. We would like to to be something like "Stanford" rather than Kanaan2. Can we do this please?

2) We have some shifts in our ED that we would like to prioritize to an R2 or R3, and either will do, but I don't know how to do this. If I sput "at lease 1 R2" and "at least 1 R3" than it will think I need both. I need "at least 1 R2 or 1 R3". Any solutions? Also, is there a way to make a tally for shifts? Our call, or "jeopardy" as you see we have made a schedule for is broken up into repsonse times. J1 is one hour, J2 is 8 hours, etc. I need to make a tally to see how many J1, J2, and J3 people have done over the year. Any solutions?

Overall we are very happy with this program and can't wait to use it.

Thanks for all your help.

Hi Ben,

1) Changing usernames: I am unable to change usernames for now, but many users are asking for this so I will try to make this a possibility.

2) Prioritize R2 over R3: Set the shift as "R2 or R3". Then create a Tally for these shifts. Set a low (but realistic) Tally Target for the R3s, and a higher (but realistic) Tally Target for the R2s. That should help push the R2s towards those shifts.

2.1) Is there a way to make a Tally for shifts? Yes, there is. Tallies are fully customizable. Each Tally can include any or all of your shfits. So you can create a Tally that counts all shifts, a Tally for the J1, a Tally for J2 and one for J3, etc...

While editing schedules you can see the Tally total for the whole year by hitting the "menu" in the Tally column and selecting "display totals for the entire year".

You can also see tallies for the entire year by going to Manage Call/Shift Schedule -> Residents Tab. There is a secondary tab there with Tally totals.

I hope that helps. Regards,
