How to Create a Stream (Department)

Streams represent departments or work areas (e.g., Emergency, ICU, Red Stream).

1. Go to Streams (Sidebar → Streams)
2. Click Create Stream
3. Enter:
   • Name – e.g., "Emergency Department"
   • Code – short code, e.g., "ED"
   • Shift Patterns – assign which shift patterns apply (AM, PM, Night, etc.)
4. Save

Next steps after creating a stream:

• Set up Vacancy Planning (how many staff needed per shift)
• Set up Master Roster (baseline template)
• Assign roster builders to manage this stream
