Staff rostering and employee scheduling screenshots of SchedulerLite.

	Rostering - Pictorial View
	The screen shown below is the one that is most commonly used when rostering staff in SchedulerLite . It is the default presentation of a roster and is designed so that it is easy to visually check the roster.
	The blue rectangles are the periods of time that an employee is rostered on for.
	In this example the top line of the rostered period shows the start and end times and the bottom line shows the duration in hours and minutes. You can change what is displayed on these lines using the display preferences. Select the 'musical note' on the toolbar to change them.

Other screenshots: Roster Management	This is the screen in which most people prefer to do their rostering. It is a graphical editor which means that you can do most things with your mouse. For example: To roster an employee drag them from the list of Available Resources on the left to the roster on the right. To change the time the employee is rostered on for drag the sides of the rectangle or drag the whole thing or double click on a blue rectangle to edit its details. To create a new employee position your mouse cursor in the Available Resource area and use the pop up menu (e.g. click the right hand mouse button).
	Note that the way dates are displayed in SchedulerLite is controlled by the Regional Settings on your PC. This means that SchedulerLite will display dates according to what your Regional Settings currently are. In this example the Regional Setting for dates was set to month/day/year.

	Rostering - Spreadsheet Style View
	Some people prefer to do their rostering in a spreadsheet style view. The screenshot below shows this alternate view of the same roster. If you prefer you can use this view to build your employee rosters. You can also toggle back and forwards between the two views of a roster.
	This example illustrates two of the more advanced features of this view. It demonstrates both the 'Group By' feature and the ability to hide unwanted columns. The rows have been grouped by rostered employee (i.e. Resource) and five columns have been hidden.

	Using the 'Group By' feature simply involves dragging one of the columns into the dark gray area above the spreadsheet. In this example the Resource column has been dragged there as indicated by the rectangle with the word Resource in it.
	The result of grouping by resource is that all the periods of time a staff member is rostered on for are listed under that them. By clicking on the '+' next to an employee the details are shown. By clicking on the '-' the details are hidden.
