Swap (swamp) Board - really? They just NEVER learn. The only good thing is getting paid for 15 min

I don't quite get the swap board thing. We were told we could go in and look at our schedule for the month and pick a day there if needed to place it on the swap board. However, my schedule has never been recorded in Schedule Source farther out than 1 week at a time. So, trying to put in any shift times for the swap in advance of the current work week is impossible for me to do. I thought our schedule was suppose to automatically populate for the month. I guess not, and CCM ...

I really thought it would be a good thing, but it sucks! Can't get any answers on how it all works, can't claim a partial shift, can't see schedule past this week to even swap some hours for later in the month. What a mess. Can nothing be EASY at this place? ...

I work a split shift and took PTO tomorrow for the second part. I am available to work a few hours before my first shift or after (because I know Fridays are usually "swamped" in our BOB), but when I look at the Swamp Board (love that name!) if says OFF and does not even give the option of hours available. So because I took PTO I am banned from the Swamp Board for the day? Does that even make sense? ...

Okay, so in my experience in trying to be compliant on making up time and "switching" swapping time when I had a funeral to attend. No problem picking up the times, but here is what happens. When I have had NJA or something happened which required a 30 min here or there I wanted to pick up and make up the hours. Well, in theory it would seem to be good; but in reality it ADDED hours to my schedule and kept my original 24 hours per week. This "swap" ...

I tried the swap yesterday. I put in to give up my shift on Friday, 4-9 as doing the Relay for Life walk that evening. It appeared to take as I had RECLAIM next to my shift instead of SWAP but when I went in today, it said SWAP again. It looked the same as it did before I put in to swap. When I looked on the SWAP board there were no shifts up for grabs and yesterday there were 2 on there??? I redid this again but cannot figure out why I had to redo it. I think it would be great if some ...

For some reason I have no schedule this week. Maybe I'm getting fired, but it would be nice if someone told me. I've had the same schedule for the past several years. Where is this swap board that we're supposed to check? I don't see it in TeamWork. Thanks, MT2 ...

I used to pick up hours from the swap board, and I notice it has been gone ever since they merged another BOB into the one I am in. :-( TSM would post hours needed for coverage, and being part time, I could pick up some of those hours. ...

is the swap board still around? I don't see it on the time sheet section? was it ever implemented? ...

How is the Swap Board going to work when you are locked out after your schedule? Supervisor going to have to MANUALLY unlock you in order to get jobs routed to you? Sometimes contacting them takes hours if not days to get an answer. ...

I used Schedule Source for about a year when they were testing it. It's one of those "benefits" they keep talking about. The problem is, if you swap you will be in somebody else's cesspool - getting unfamiliar accounts for which you have to read maybe multiple CPs and get reports where you may have to leave QA markers and spend extra time researching. It's also a mechanism for MTs to dump shifts where they know they will get a specific crummy account/dictat ...

Just wondering since it just got implemented yesterday if anyone has used it yet. Wanted to post my Friday shift and take earlier hours, but afraid to be the first...yeah..im a chicken. LOL ...

1. What is the different between MT1 and MT2? I see both listed on the swap board when you see a list for a shift that's available. 2. What if you claim a shift for someone, and then you can't work it? Then you are automatically responsible for the shift? Can you send it back? What happens to the person who thought their shift was covered? 3. What if there are NJA on a shift that you have taken for someone? Do you send a NJA note to Sup ...

Does anyone know if in order to use the swap board you have to actually swap a schedule, or can you just grab a schedule and not put one out there? If that is the case, and part-timers are just grabbing some extra time, there may not be any schedules out there to make up time with. ...

Why am I the only one happy about the swap board? I think its a great idea. Being able to swap and pick up hours. I am having a hard time understanding the who "You cannot claim this shift thing". One of the criteria is of it being over your hours. But overall, I think its gonna be good for swapping when your in a pinch. ...

A shift for 6p to 9p is on the swap board. If I work 8a to 4p, I see the following: Is ([MASTER] 8am-12pm;) Ok? NO Does this mean I have to be working 8-12 to claim this shift? Within Max Hours/Week? NO Does this need to be approved because its OT? These are criteria that give me a message "cannot claim shift". I can't seen to claim ANY shift on this swap board. If this is truly a "swap" board, shouldn't I be able to swap schedules ...

What has happened to the swap board in SA4? Did I miss a memo saying it was going to be taken down?? Has anyone heard even a peep from the new CCM or QTC? Have the audits stopped? Has "feedback" been stopped? I have not had one job even come back to me for feedback for 2 1/2 weeks now! Nada, zilch... WHAT'S GOING ON!!!??? ARG!!!! ...

Just got email from CCM stating that soon we will be utilizing swap board. Does anyone have any tips on this? Has anyone been using this? Is it hard to get make-up time this way? ...

Can anyone point me towards documentation on how the swap board works? I recently started getting TW emails showing my scheduled hours in one column and hours on the swap board in the other column. I can't find anything on the intranet site that explains it (although finding anything on the intranet site is usually a challenge anyways)! Thanks for any insight into this mysterious mechanism! ...

I left a message in post to another post about the Swap (swamp) Board. I had wayyy too many hours showing I had scheduled to work. I normally only work 24 hours week (48 hours pay period or maybe 54 at the most). Mine said 66.50 hours scheduled to work. I don't recall asking to pick up that many hours here and there. My CCM said I needed to go in and reclaim the shifts???? She took off where I had approved my timesheet. But I cannot find ...

I find that Swap Board is useless, there are never any hours to "swap" Also, am in performance management . They are findings ways to fire me. I want to know about unemployment, does anyone know I am new to Oregon and do not know the laws. I asked to be on an account that has no ASR and was denied being told that 80% of MQ's work is ASR now. ...

Swap Board...maybe for part timers..but I will not go near it as a full time person. I am not risking needing a day off by floating a shift, hoping somebody takes it..then finding another shift. I will use other methods. First Time Right - the accessing old reports part. I have in fact been helped by this a great deal. The problem is it is takes forever to go through a myriad of reports hoping to find the one that possibly will help you. I like the Repository MUCH B ...

Apparently, my team (lucky us) has been selected to participate in a pilot to bring back the Swap Board. If my memory serves me correctly, it was a ginormous disaster the last time they tried to force it upon us. This on top of the back log of work, mandatory overtime and switching accounts? Really? Am I in the Twilight Zone? ugh...first resume sent last week...more to follow for sure. ...

Does anybody out there actually have a working swap board with a long schedule posted? I'm getting so frustrated with this supposedly wonderful tool for us to have. My schedule is never posted farther out than my current work week nor are any available shifts listed farther out than that. I'm really starting to wonder why the CCM is dragging feet so much. CCM has mentioned everything from "unsure schedules are correct" to "waiting for all the kinks to get out." However, any t ...

I am in my last semester of an HIT program at my local community college. This program is accredited through CAHIIM. I actually found this program on the AHIMA website as an approved AHIMA coding program and was so excited that it was in my hometown. Well, almost two years later and $4000 in student debt, I still have no idea how to code. Sure, I'm great at Math 101 and English 101 and my anatomy is amazing, but I have no idea how to code. One class that I have ...

I love it. Even Radiology pops up every couple of days or so, which is what I do. If you want to work, there is work. Unfortunately you have to watch out for the scams - but basically there's work if you can do it. I think we should thank MT Stars for bringing us this medium to look for jobs, and vent. Thank you MT Stars. ...
