how it runs

Behind the sick day.

Rachel says Lewis is off sick tomorrow. This is what happens between her question and Friday morning.

01

Matched first

Lewis's jobs are read from BigChange and checked against the skills matrix, Friday's diaries and who is nearest.

questions

Questions about sick day cover

From the skills matrix and ticket records you trained it on, and the diaries in BigChange. It only suggests someone whose tickets are in date and who has the time free, and it says why the others can't go.

No. It proposes who takes each job and waits. Nothing moves until the person asking says so, and BigChange's per-action permissions decide who is allowed to reschedule jobs through Centrus at all.

Each one gets the moved job on WhatsApp: the site, the time and the work. The job itself is updated in BigChange, so it is in their app too, and they can ask Centrus about access or parts in the same thread.

This page shows BigChange, where each action can be allowed or blocked by role. Centrus also reads and writes Joblogic and Simpro, and the demo runs on the job system you use, so you can see how rescheduling works on yours.
