Post a job as an LEA – Rollkall Technologies

Posting a job means making it available for officers to sign up for it. You may also manually select the officers who will be assigned to a job. Click here for instructions on how to assign a job manually.

1. 1. Click Jobs in the navigation bar.
  2. Click the Upcoming or Unstaffed tab, as appropriate.
    A table listing of jobs displays.
  3. Select the checkbox to the left of the job you want to post; then click the Post Selected button in the bottom right corner of the page.
    The Post Job page displays.
    1. Select whether you want to post the job per an Agency assignment rule that has already been created. Click here for more information on Agency assignment rules.
      Note: You can click Create New Rule to create a new assignment rule without having to go to the Officer Approval & Assignment Rules section of Agency Setting area of the Admin Portal to create it there.
    2. Select whether you want to post this job to an assignment group, to all RollKall officers, or to a specific group(s). To post a job to an assignment group, you will have needed to create that group in your Agency Settings.
    3. Select whether you want to delay the posting to those outside the group by group, time, or a combination of those two parameters.
    4. Select whether you want to post the job immediately to your chosen group (all RollKall Officers or a group) or at a designated time. If you decide to post at a designated time, enter the specifics. The Post at a Specific Date/Time is particularly useful for recurring jobs as it automatically schedules and posts those jobs once you have performed an initial setup.
      Post jobs about 2-3 weeks prior to first day that you’ll need someone.
    5. Select your Officer Approval & Assignment Rules. Click here to view a page with videos that cover the various assignment rules.
      Following are the options.

Assignment Option	Description
Assign Manually	Officers apply and appear in a list where the coordinator can select the officer they wish to work the job.
Based on the first come first serve rule	First officer to apply for the job is assigned the job. You can choose the following options: No limit: True first come, first served. Limit # of Jobs: Apply a limit to the number of jobs an officer is assigned to, by day. Signup Period: How long the job is posted and officers can sign-up before the job is assigned as well as limiting the number of job assignments per round. A round tells RollKall how many jobs the officer can be assigned before moving on to the next officer. Each officer gets one job, and then it moves to the next officer, then the next, etc. Once it reaches the end of the officers who have applied for jobs it loops back around and starts with the first officer again.
By hours	The officer with the fewest hours is assigned the job. Sign up period: How long the job is posted and officers can sign-up before the job is assigned. Time Period To Consider: The number of days the system looks over to calculate the number of hours the officer has worked or is scheduled to work. For example, entering 30 days means the system looks back over the last 30 days to make its calculations. The Year to Date option allows RollKall to factor in all of the hours worked year-to-date. If you select Rolling 365, RollKall factors in all of the hours worked the year prior to the job being posted.
By number of jobs	The officer with the fewest jobs is assigned the job. Sign up period: How long the job is posted and officers can sign-up before the job is assigned. Time Period To Consider: The number of days the system looks over to calculate the number of hours the officer has worked or is scheduled to work. For example, entering 30 days means the system looks back over the last 30 days to make its calculations.
By seniority (Descending)	Officers are ranked from most senior to least senior, and are assigned jobs based on the number of jobs awarded per round (soup kitchen). Sign-Up Period: How long the job is posted and officers can sign-up before the job is assigned. For example, 48 hours “X” Jobs Per Round: Tells RollKall how many jobs the officer can be assigned before moving on to the next officer. Each officer gets one job, and then it moves to the next officer, then the next, etc. Once it reaches the end of the officers who have applied for jobs it loops back around and starts with the first officer again.
By seniority (Ascending)	Officers are ranked from least senior to most senior, and are assigned jobs based on the number of jobs awarded per round (soup kitchen). Sign-Up Period: How long the job is posted and officers can sign-up before the job is assigned. For example, 48 hours “X” Jobs Per Round: Tells RollKall how many jobs the officer can be assigned before moving on to the next officer. Each officer gets one job, and then it moves to the next officer, then the next, etc. Once it reaches the end of the officers who have applied for jobs it loops back around and starts with the first officer again.
Randomly	Officers are assigned randomly after the signup period is closed.
