Greetings All!
I'm looking to make an excel document that would track our team, and their availability down to the hour (or maybe even half hour) for any given week. I will be starting just with a general schedule, a table of each volunteer showing their certifications and what hours they're able to work; and the goal will be to have a single view of each day of who is available when. Some features we'd like to see would be to incorporate vacation schedules, so we can easily see the data for a specific week, and to incorporate the capabilities of each person (what we call certs. here.) I've made a basic mock up here if that helps, but it's very basic.
So my questions really are this:
1) What functions and tools would work best for this? What should I study up on?
2) Is there a pre-made template floating around the internet somewhere I could start from?
Thanks in advance for your help, I appreciate the guidance. I've looked at some other sites and seen templates already, but mostly they're either for tracking sick/vacation days, or for tracking time that was already worked, not availability. Since each of the folks I work with has a different schedule, we need to have a single view into where our labor shortage is, and look for volunteers who can work during the times we have needs.
