Special Requests/Needs

Special requests are similar to skills in that they can be used to find the appropriate person for a job assignment, but they do it (usually) by indicating what a person needs, rather than what he/she wants. Sample special requests include "Assignments - Indoor", "Meals - Kosher" and "No heavy lifting". You can filter, sort and report on people based on this value.

Define special requests and needs on the Setup panel under People using the Special requests/needs link. Add a new one with the Add request/need link. Edit, delete or change existing items to inactive by right-clicking on them.

Deleting a special request removes that special request/need from all people who currently have it.
