Create a Target rule
- In the Work Preference
 Infobox window, click the bulls-eye target icon. The Rule
Writer toolbox opens to create a Target rule. Alternatively, go to Window
in menu bar and select Rule Writer. In the TOP dropdown select Target rule.
- In the MIDDLE dropdown give the target rule a custom name such as the staff
person's name. Otherwise, they'll be "Target rule 1", "Target rule 2", etc.
- In the BOTTOM dropdown, select the Call/Shift condition. Select one or
more services/shifts below. A red cresent moon
 appears above. Use the up blue arrow beneath it to set the target number of shifts/hours
for your time frame. Then click the + icon and add another call/shift condition with
a target.
- When the rule is complete, click the Apply to => icon and select which
staff use the rule. If the rule applies to everyone, click the red two column horizontal
line icon in the upper left. If you add people later to your schedule, you'll need
to return to the rule writer and apply the rule to them.
Targets by default are set by number of shifts worked. To switch targets to number
of hours, click the View & Tally  icon in toolbar above.
The default target range is monthly or your custom schedule date range. To scale the
targets to a different range, go to the File / Preferences / Call tallies, 2.
Check the box Target workloads are based on.. and set the number of days to
scale to schedule. Click OK once finished to close the Preference window.
Example:
Dr. X has a home location at Site A, but is also responsible for cross coverage
within a region consisting of Sites B, C and D. Dr. X works 20 shifts a month. 80%
of his shifts should be scheduled at Site A and 20% of his shifts should be scheduled
at Sites B, C and D.
In the Rule Writer toolbox, start the target rule by selecting the call/shift
condition in bottom dropdown. Select site A shifts. Then click the up blue arrow to
set Dr. X's Site A shifts to 80% (16 shifts). Then add a + sign followed by another
call/shift condition for Site B, C, and D. Click the up blue arrow to set number of
shifts to 20% (4 shifts). Click the => Apply to icon to apply the target rule to Dr.
X.
