If you already have the article Understanding the SCHADS Alert System, this article is the staff-profile side of it - how to include (or exclude) an individual staff member from those alerts and how to maintain the key values that alerts rely on.
To edit a staff member’s SCHADS alert settings, open the staff profile and go to the Finance tab. From the Financial Details card, click the menu button (three dots) and open Edit Financial Details.
Inside the edit screen, the SCHADS controls sit alongside the staff member’s weekly hour settings. The most important setting is Include for SCHADS alerts. When this is enabled, the roster will include this staff member in SCHADS checks and warnings.
When it’s disabled, the roster won’t show SCHADS alerts for that staff member.
While you’re here, it’s best practice to also confirm the values SCHADS alerts depend on:
Actual weekly hours/days (what they typically work)
Full-time equivalent weekly hours/days (their FTE baseline)
Maximum daily hours (a daily cap used in checks; if this is left blank or set to 0, the staff member may be excluded from that daily-hour count)
One important behaviour to be aware of: if the staff member is set as a Contractor, some employment fields (including SCHADS-related controls) may be locked, because contractors are handled differently in rostering rules.
After making changes, click Save. The roster’s SCHADS alerts update based on the latest saved values, so if you were previously seeing alerts (or not seeing them) for this staff member, this setting is the first place to check.
