Best Practices - Duty Roster

Each club/class organization is unique.  Below are recommended best practices for managing Duty Roster:

• Duty roster is most often used for race committee duties, but it can be utilized for other roles as well
• Create Duty types as needed, for example:
  • PRO (Principle Race Officer)
  • Assistant PRO
  • Judge
  • Safety Boat /ATB 1
  • Safety Boat / ATB 2
  • Safety Boat / ATB 3
  • Junior PRO
  • Junior course 1
  • Junior course 2
  • Junior course 3
  • Dinner setup 1
  • Dinner setup 2
  • Dinner server 1
  • Dinner server 2
  • Dinner clean-up 1
  • Dinner clean-up 2
• Create Duty Roster Templates, grouping the appropriate Duty Types, for example:
  • ATB RC Staff
  • Junior RC Staff
  • Dinner Staff
• Assign TAGs, as needed for various Duty Types, for example:
  • PRO and Junior PRO have TAG = PRO; only contact records that have a TAG = PRO can volunteer for these Duty Types
• Use Tasks/Jobs, rather than Duty Roster, for activities that may be recurring and/or take place at times other than a specific event, for example:
• Lawn maintenance
• Dock maintenance
• Spring clean-up
• Autumn / Fall clean-up

Each club/class may have different policies/practices.  The above are recommended best practices for Duty Roster.
