Demand (Number of Employees needed) 

In some companies, the number of employees needed at work can be the same every day. However, in other companies, there may be a varying need based on the day of the week.

This Team Vacation Planner Excel Template allows you to customize to handle such scenarios that easily. For each weekday, we can set the number of employees needed.

Calendar View of Availability

The template calculates a calendar automatically for up to 50 employees (can be easily extended)  for 366 days.

Availability Summary – Employees Needed and Employees Available – Understaffed and Overstaffed days

 

It shows the following information for each day in our planning period.

  • Employees Needed: How many employees are needed at work on that day.
  • Employees Available: How many employees are available to work on the day.
  • Employees on Vacation: How many employees, who are employed on that day, have planned vacation for that day.
  • Availability – Needed: Are we understaffed, overstaffed or right-staffed. If it is negative, we are understaffed (availability is less than need). If it is positive, we are overstaffed (availability is greater than need). If it is 0, we have the right number of staff (availability equals need).
    • We will see a red flag where there is under-staffing.

 

By knowing which days are understaffed or overstaffed, we can take actions accordingly. If we are understaffed, we can either increase capacity by hiring more permanent or temporary employees. If we are overstaffed, we can try to find more projects to do.

We can also see each Employee’s availability/vacation on the Calendar.

Availability Calendar shows each employees availability and vacation

  • Green indicates the employee is available to work
  • Red indicates the employee is on vacation
  • Purple indicates a holiday
  • Gray indicates the employee is not working that day (Weekend or the employee does not work on that weekday)

 

Monthly Summary Report

The Report sheet is also fully automated. It will show the overall summary and summary of availability by month.
