With HelloShift, you can run Housekeeping assignments in a variety of ways. You can choose to run assignments manually or using our Auto-Assign feature. Both approaches have different ways of running assignments. 

Auto-Assign, typically for larger properties, allows you to set up a credit-based system that takes into account the number of rooms and the tasks you’ll be performing on those rooms. 

This article will help you get started with HelloShifts Auto Assign feature. 

Note: the process below is a one-time setup

To begin, we will navigate to Admin>Settings>Cleaning 

Here, you’ll see this page, which is split into two sections where you can add credits.

Section 1

In this section you can lay out the expected amount of credits a Housekeeper can expect on any working day. If your housekeeping team has fixed days off, you can leave those days empty of credits. If your team’s off days are not fixed but random then please make sure all days have credits set. 

Section 2

In this section, you’ll see all of the types of cleans you’ve configured in the system (click here to learn how to add your customer clean types). Aside from that, you’ll see the types of rooms according to your setup. 

The intention of this layout is to define the cost in credits that it will take to perform a certain type of action on a certain type of room. Most hotels use credits as the amount of time it should take to clean a specific type of room based on the action that is being performed on it. 

For example: 

  • A Light Clean (Referesh) on a Queen room would take: 20 credits and is expected to take around 20 minutes to complete
  • A Checkout Clean on a Queen room would take: 40 credits and is expected to take up to 40 minutes to complete. 
  • A Checkout Clean on a Studio would take: 30 credits and up to 30 minutes to clean

Following this logic, you should be able to establish a credit-based system that will always consider that action is being taken and on which type of room.

Once you’ve added your staff’s credit schedule and your credit system based on room and action types, you are ready to begin Auto-Assignments.
