Revision History

 

 

Edays application is a leave management and TOIL (Time off in Lieu) tracking system. In a nutshell, it tracks the number of hours/ days/ schedule for which the resource is not available (absent) for deployment on a task. It allows the task manager (Labor Planner) to view this information in any 3rd party system with which Edays is integrated.

Edays provides some APIs to integrate Edays data into other applications.

Now you can sync your crews' absence information from Edays into R2 Labor. This helps the Labor planner to view the absence information of the crew in R2 Labor and assign the task accordingly.

 

How sync happens?

If the absence information for a crew changes in Edays between the two sync schedules - the information on the crew calendar in R2 Labor  will be out of sync till the next sync schedule.

 

Supported operations

Following are the operations that can be synced to R2 Labor from the Edays.

 

The absence details synced from Edays to crew calendar can neither be deleted nor modified in R2 Labor.
