Advanced Rostering for Group Shifts & SIL Homes | Supportly
Advanced Rostering

One Shift. Every Worker. One Screen.

Advanced Rostering is built for providers running group programs, shared homes, and shared-care arrangements — where one shift means several workers, several participants, and none of them the same.

Tuesday · Day Program

Group Shift — 4 Participants, 3 Workers

Participant A · 1:1 · Travel9:00–11:00
Participant B · 1:39:00–12:00
Participant C · 1:39:30–12:00
Participant D · 1:510:00–12:00
The problem

Group shifts don't fit into a one-worker, one-participant box.

Four participants in one shift. One has travel funding, three don't. Two are on a 1:3 ratio, one is 1:5, one is one-to-one. Most rostering software makes you build that as separate shifts, side notes, and a spreadsheet to keep it all straight — ten minutes a shift, every shift, every week.

It isn't that your rostering is too complex. It's that most platforms were built for the simpler case.

The solution

Everything About a Group Shift, on One Screen

Add every worker and every participant to a single shift, then set what's different about each one without leaving it.

01

Many Workers, Many Participants

Schedule several workers and several participants into a single shift — the way group programs, shared homes and shared-care arrangements actually run.

02

Each Participant, Their Own Settings

Set start and finish times, service type, claim type and travel charge per participant, inside the shift. Billing follows what you set.

03

Save as You Go

Half-finished at 4:45pm? Save the shift as a draft and come back to exactly where you left off.

Common questions

Before You Book

Does this track actual start and finish times on the day?

You set each participant's scheduled times inside the shift. Actual hours worked are managed in the timesheet, not the roster.

Can I set different funding ratios for different participants in the same shift?

Yes — 1:1, 1:3 and 1:5 (or any mix) can be set per participant, inside the one shift, along with their own service type and travel charge.

What if I get interrupted while building a shift?

Save it as a draft. It'll be exactly where you left it when you come back.

Is there a dedicated home-based roster view?

Home scheduling is supported. A dedicated home rostering view isn't part of this release — happy to talk through the current workflow in a demo.
