Search Phase Menu

The Search Phase Menu gives you access to the modules which control what employees will be picked in the various phases of the search routine. There are six phases in all. In the Search Order Changes you can control which of the six phases are used, and in what order they are searched. By putting groups of employees on any one of the six phases, you control in what order they are found by the searching algorithm. In this way you can give precedence to some employees while moving others to the bottom of the search routine. A brief definition of the intended use of each phase is as follows:

Phase one is a list of employees that are preferred by the district. Phase two is a list of employees that are preferred by a location. Phase three is comprised of all the active employees in the sub/cas preference file. Phase four is the same as phase three except it excludes employees who are on any of the phase one, two, five, or six lists. Phase five is a list of people that the district prefers not to use. Phase six is a list of employees that a specific location prefers not to use.

NOTE: While phase lists one and two are intended to be preferred employees, and phase five and six are intended to be undesired employees, you can use these phases for whatever purpose you like, as long as you realize that phases one and five are district lists, while phases two and six are location specific lists.
