ESS - Web application which allows for ad-hoc managing of employees and spaces on a per-event basis
ESS (Employee Scheduling System) is a free php and mySQL based web application which allows for ad-hoc managing of employees and spaces on a per-event basis, rather than hourly.

ESS will provide you with OS X and Linux backends featuring a standard happy web frontend.

  • Allows for supervisors to override availibilities
  • Acts as a single contact point for employees and supervisors for not only scheduling, but also contact data.
  • Allow mass emailing to employees with updated schedules, etc
  • ICS/iCal output for live, in calendar viewing of events What it will do (hopefully):
  • Event costing for future quotes
  • Tie into a cvs output for payroll purposes
