AnnoPlan Rostering Spreadsheet
PLAN VACATIONS * SCHEDULE PRODUCTION * ROSTER HOTEL ROOMS
New Concept... Date-based Spreadsheet Scheduler
We're going straight to the point and showing you some screen examples...
Judge for yourself the power and simplicity...
You could use it to schedule production... 
J.
or You could run a hotel...

You can drag the days apart and look at just one day...

or Drag them together and see 8 weeks in one hit...

AnnoPlan is aimed at users who need to quickly generate and print Rosters.
Examples are...
Holiday or Shift rosters for your company's staff.
Production schedules for rostering machines.
Hotel or Motel Bookings.
School TimeTables. Hospital Nursing Rosters
Schedules for Building operations.

AnnoPlan prints what you see on the screen.
Whichever format you select on screen (see the examples above), AnnoPlan will print in the same way.
So, you can quickly supply easily read reports for Notice Boards. 

AnnoPlan Emails your current Roster. 
Whichever format you select on screen (see the examples above), AnnoPlan will EMAIL in the same way.
After completing a Roster, simply hit the new Email button and a SNAPSHOT of your roster is created.
This is a JPEG file that is then auto-attached to a blank email composition form, ready for you to address
and send out. If the Roster is deep (more Rows than one screen) then several JPEGs are created.
When the Recipients open their mail, they will be able to see the Roster(s) instantly. 

AnnoPlan may best be described as a "Date-based Spreadsheet".
Date-cells may be flagged with letters to illustrate Shifts, Holidays or  Rooms booked etc.
Define and use your own 4 character Flags or simply type lengthy text messages into any cell.
Blocks of Date-cells may be Block-Filled, Copied, Pasted or Deleted.
The Roster's calendar is switchable between 5 and 7 day week displays.
The width of the date-columns may be varied, individually or for ALL column-widths. 
A "Jump Button" takes you quickly to any date between 1928 and 2097 to then place Flags or Text.
Improved in V5 - As you slide the horizontal Scroll-bar you can see the date you wish to move to, on release.

AnnoPlan Date-cells may also be Counted or Added.
From V4 - "Drag & Count" or "Drag & Add" features turn AnnoPlan into a true spreadsheet.
Click a cell that contains a value and drag across some days or weeks.
Instantly, a "Projected Value" appears, gained from multiplying the 1st cell's value by the number of cells selected.
In addition, the actual values in the cells are accumulated to produce a Total when the Mouse button is released.
For greater ranges (Months or Years) you may use the alternate "Count Cells Flags" or "Add Cell Values" functions.
Cell values may be detected simply by "1st numeric found" or a more powerful "Flagged value" requirement.
From V4 - Search Function - You may now search the cells for a required word.

AnnoPlan is fully featured, with a detailed Help module.

The Annoplan author was delighted to receive the following email from Estrella Kennels of Sunbury California on 7th July 2004...
"Thank you for writing such a great program.  I have been using it for 5 years at the kennel and it is AMAZING.
  The second download was for a back up at home. DUH. Thanks again. Carolyn"

The author wrote back, asking if he could post the message on this website.
The sender replied saying "I can do you a much better one than that !"
And here is her final word...

"I was computerizing my business and desperate for a scheduling program.
I looked at kennel and hotel software, but none of them fit the bill.  They
were either to complicated to learn or had too many bells and whistles.
AnnoPlan was like manna from heaven.  It is easy to learn, use and is
exceptionally reliable.  What used to take me hours with a flow chart can
now be done in minutes.  I can never thank you enough! Carolyn Chaffee,
Owner, Estrella Kennels
