CallSchedule

The Logical Product's Call Scheduling Software

The CallSchedule program is now free. Previously the program sold for $900 (and was underpriced). The Logical Product will charge only for support and custom modifications. If you have an uncomplicated call schedule and look at the manual you should not need support. Even if your schedule is complicated, you should not need support if you read the manual. Support in setting up the program for an extremely complicated call schedule will be worthwhile.

CallSchedule version 6 is a complete scheduling program with the ability to schedule day and night assignments. The program can schedule sub-specialty assignments as subsets of primary call types. Part time and temporary people are accommodated. Temporary and irregularly occurring assignments are also accommodated. Multiple options for night call spacing are available. Cumulative statistics are used to distribute assignments equitably. Schedules can be printed in various formats including monthly calendars, and weekly or daily schedules. HTML files of monthly schedules can be created by the program. CallSchedule can accommodate virtually any group with daytime and/or night call assignments.

The latest version is 6.0.2 released September 11, 2009. Click download for more information and to download the program.

CallSchedule is a program that computes a call and work schedule a month at a time maintaining continuity between months. The user enters the call and work types to be scheduled and the people to schedule. The program computes a schedule equalizing the workload. The user has the ability to enter vacation, requests not to be on call on a particular day, and other non-availability. It is possible but not necessary to enter specific assignments manually. The program will compute a schedule incorporating the data entered by the user. Schedules, statistics, and other setup data such as vacation can be printed or saved as a spreadsheet readable file or HTML file for posting on the web or downloading to personal devices. The schedule can be recomputed or edited with last minute changes. The user setup data, schedule, and statistics are stored in a Microsoft Access database. The program runs on Microsoft Windows 95, 98, ME, XP, Vista, Windows 2000 or Microsoft NT Workstation.
