Sector

How to configure a sector?

When creating Sectors in the Operations Manager for the first time, there is a specific flow that needs to be followed :


Every location has a housekeeping sector. The sector is the order of the accommodations on the location. This sector is defined to make sure the planning is made in an efficient way.

Permission required

In order to configure sectors, the user requires permission called 'Operations Manager - Housekeeping Sector'. Once this is enabled, the user will be able to create, adjust and remove sectors below the configuration menu in the Operations Manager.

  1. A sector can be created in the Sector menu in the Configuration module within the Operations Manager. At the bottom right, the user can click on the Create sector button , where the user will then choose the location and name for that new sector.
  2. Once created, the user can start adding units to the units card. The units card determines the walking route, so you should be adding units in the optimal walking route scenario.
    1. If you want to add units to an existing sector, you'll be asked to select a spot within that walking route first before actually selecting the units that should be added. Via this way, you can easily add them to the right spot.
  3. Within the sector, the housekeeping employees which are working in this sector need to be linked. This is needed so the employees can be assigned to tasks that are planned for that sector on a specific date. Employees also need to be linked to a sector in order to show up in the assign employee screens. Together with the permissions "Operations Manager - Cleaning" or "Operations Manager - Control", the system will make sure that employees can be assigned to tasks after creating a planning.


Done?

You have successfully configured Sectors for your location. These sectors will allow you to create an optimal walking route and planning for your housekeeping operations.   You now need to configure housekeeping Tasks to assign to your employees.
