In short. A period's Answers tab says who has answered. There you remind latecomers and settle shift requests and carried-over answers. For managers only.
Read where answers stand
The Answer column separates Confirmed, Entered, not confirmed and No answer.
Good to know: the calculation also reads what is entered without being confirmed. Confirmation only tells you the person has finished.
Remind people
Automatic reminders go out by themselves, at the team's rate. To remind right away, with your password:
- Remind the 4 who have not confirmed, above the table;
- Remind, on a person's row.
A manual reminder counts towards the number of reminders allowed for the team.
Keep or refuse a shift request
Under the table, Shift requests are grouped by slot, each with its Kept / Refused switch. The first one placed is kept by default. Keeping a request refuses the one that was kept.
A kept request becomes a granted shift: the calculation respects it, locked.
Settle carried-over answers
Someone who has not confirmed, and whose previous answers were copied, is marked "carried over".
- Kept, the starting choice: the calculation reads their usual preferences and unavailability.
- Set aside, after Set aside the carry-over and your password: the calculation treats them as having declared nothing.

If something is wrong
- Someone is missing from the tracking: they are excluded from this period, or their status is not physician (Team members).
- "Nobody to remind": everyone has answered, or the latecomers have received all the reminders allowed.
