Comparing predictive vs actual demand in labour optimisation

What's new

  • Added actual demand Line to the existing Labour Optimisation graph.

  • Visual comparison between predicted and actual staffing requirements.

  • Real-time assessment of workforce planning accuracy.

How it works

The Labour Optimisation graph now shows:

  • Forecast sales existing.

  • Scheduled headcount existing colour bars.

  • Predicted demand line existing - based on productivity measures and minimum staffing levels.

    • Incorporates minimum staffing levels automatically.

    • Appears alongside predicted demand for direct comparison
