No sign-up, nothing to install. Share your candidate dates in about 30 seconds.
Sound familiar?
You copy shift preferences collected on paper or in a chat into a spreadsheet by hand
You don't know how many people can work each day until every preference is in
Every change or late addition means rebuilding the table
How whenly solves it
- 1
Preferences come in as ○△× on candidate dates
Participants don't log in. List the month's candidate dates and each person marks ○ on days they can work and △ on days they could if needed.
- 2
Headcount per day, tallied automatically
The ○ count is shown per candidate date, so understaffed days stand out right away.
- 3
Changes show up as they happen; the table prints
When staff change an answer it shows on the organizer's screen right away. The finished table prints on A4.
Tips
- Change the options to "All day / Morning only / Afternoon only / Unavailable" to collect time-of-day preferences too.
- Create one event per month and manage them under an account to look back at past preferences.
