Crews

Crews are named groups of operators that work together. When you build a schedule, you assign a crew to each shift entry -- this tells OpSee which team of people is on duty during that time window.

Adding members​

  1. Click the members icon (group icon, blue) in the crew's row
  2. The Manage Members dialog opens showing current members
  3. Select an Operator from the dropdown (only operators not already in the crew are listed)

    • Pick an existing role from the dropdown

Removing members​

In the members dialog, click the red trash icon next to the operator you want to remove. The removal takes effect immediately.

Operator roles​

Roles describe what function an operator serves within a crew. Common examples:

RoleDescription

TraineeOperator in training
QualityQuality control inspector
tip

Roles are shared across all crews. When you type a new role name in the members dialog, it is persisted in the m_operator_role table and becomes available for all crews. This keeps role names consistent across the entire system.

Deactivate vs. Delete​

ActionEffect
DeactivateHides the crew from selection dropdowns in schedule entries. Existing schedule entries referencing this crew are not affected.
DeletePermanently removes the crew and all its member associations.

Crew in Schedules​

Once a crew exists and has members, it can be assigned to schedule entries:

When OpSee detects the active shift for an equipment, it also knows which crew (and therefore which operators) are working.
