    Hi @Belinda Herrera

    Would you be able to provide more detail around ET/UT metric and what a user scenario might be to utilise this? My thoughts are that perhaps ET is for overtime projections and perhpas UT would be for VTO projections. Could you use this as a way to model how much overtime you need or how much VTO to issue out?

    Hi @Mike Morris,

    You are correct, ET stands for Extra Time and UT for Under Time.  These metrics can absolutely be used to model how much overtime or VTO is needed to meet your requirements.  We are using this metric to calculate the Planned FTE number for each week so it can really be utilized for any increases or decreases in staffing you might have each week.  I hope that helps.  Let me know if you have any additional questions.

    No that sounds great, I was just making sure that it was not something specific. But essentially its a tool we can use to help scenrio modelling on how to increase or reduce staffing for peaks and troughs.
