Auto-rotate, auto-correct and backups

Each rotation has three settings that keep the schedule full when people can't serve. They're in the rotation window (Edit Rotation), under Settings. Select ⓘ next to one in the app for a reminder.

Auto-rotate

When everyone on a rotated field declines an event (for example the one worship leader that week), and Auto-Rotate Enabled is on:

1. 1
   Scheduly puts the next rotation that can serve on the field, skipping people who declined or are blocked out.
2. 2
   They get a text and an email right away, asking them to accept.
3. 3
   The backup people (if Backup Enabled is on) get an email: Schedule update for the field, with who's scheduled now, who declined and why.

If someone else on the field accepted, nothing changes: auto-rotate only steps in when the whole field declined.

Auto-correct

Rotations fill each event when it's created, so events created weeks ahead can get out of order. With Auto-Correct Enabled, Scheduly re-picks the field on the later events of the template when:

• an event is added,
• an event is deleted,
• someone declines and auto-rotate moves the rotation (Auto-Rotate Enabled must be on).

An event is left alone for that field once someone on it was texted or emailed, or accepted: they were told they're on.

Backups

Backup people serve when no rotation can: everyone in every rotation declined, is blocked out, or the filters leave none for that date. Pick them in Backup Members; they show as Backup on the field. They also get the Schedule update email when auto-rotate moves someone.

Backups are skipped if they've declined that event too, and people with a disabled account are never emailed.
