Mass SignOns

From PHP-EMS-Tools

The schedule also incorporates functionality for mass sign-ons through the massSignOns.php page, accessed via the "Mass Signon" link at the top of the schedule page.

This feature allows *one* member to sign on for multiple days of the same shift and hours.

i.e. if Joe wants to sign on for every Monday night in October (or Monday and Friday) from 1800-0600, he can go to the October Nights schedule, click "Mass Signon", then click the check boxes for the days he wants, enter his EMTid and start and end times, and click "Submit". He will be signed on for the next available slot on all of the selected days.

Known Issues

• This is incompatible with any organization-specific changes to the slot system, i.e. assigning specific position titles to a specific slot.
• This will *not* authenticate a user. If you have the schedule set to require an EMTid and password for each user to be able to sign on, this page will not handle it. In fact, it will probably bypass that entirely.
• If you're operating a very large installation, I suggest disabling this feature as if two users were to sign on simultaneously, one would get overwritten.
