WELCOME TO STAFF-IT! IIb Staff-It! IIb is a fully functional, stand-alone staff scheduling system which utilizes a forward-chaining rule processor to execute user-defined rules while automatically scheduling your staff. You can schedule up to 99 employees, in seven departments, for any of 5 shifts (which you define). Staff-It! IIb is menu driven and includes field-level help to assist you every step of the way. To learn how to use STAFF-It!, you should do two things: (1) Print out the tutorial on this disk (called TUTORIAL.DOC) and follow the directions, and (2) Register your copy to recieve the full manual which contains everything that you need to know to use the system to its fullest extent. Also note that there is field-level help available every step of the way - just press F1. Staff-It! IIb should work with any MS-DOS system running 3.1 or higher. It requires 640K of memory and can be run entirely from a floppy disk (of course, installing it on a hard drive will make it run faster!). You need only have a monchrome graphics card to run the system; it will also work with CGA, EGA, and VGA monitors. There are already printer drivers for HP Laserjet and other printers included, as is the ability to develop your own drivers. Initially setting up the Staff-It! IIb system takes a bit of work, but the tutorial helps you through it step-by-step. If you are using a sharware version of Staff-It! IIb you can obtain a full manual by registering your copy. By registering, you will also receive one free upgrade and notices of updates and enhancements - look for future versions which will: o Schedule for multiple weeks at a time o Store and report on historical data o Report on vacation days and sick days used o Include expanded rule syntax for even more powerful scheduling o Interface with other PC packages (spreadsheets, database managers, etc.) and much more.
