Common questions
Does this assign named employees?
No. It calculates a staffing baseline. Named assignments require availability, qualifications, locations, preferences, time off, and operating rules.
Why include reserve coverage?
A minimum headcount leaves no room for absence, training, turnover, or demand variation. Reserve coverage creates a more realistic planning target.
