A physician roster generated by PlanMyRounds Auto Mode

Admins review. They do not build by hand.

Auto Mode runs the whole cycle, from asking doctors for leave to publishing the roster. It saves 30+ hours per doctor each month.

Define what the roster needs to satisfy

Auto Mode works from the rules you set, not from a template. Every generated roster meets all of them.

  • Minimum doctors per shift
  • Availability and approved leave
  • Rest requirements
  • Working-hour limits
  • Consecutive-duty limits

The full list of scheduling rules

PlanMyRounds scheduling rules: max consecutive work days, rest days and recovery settings

Let the engine assign the duties

The engine finds eligible doctors for every shift, applies approved leave, enforces every hard rule and balances workload. A roster that takes days by hand is generated in minutes.

Review before you publish

Every generated roster is a draft until an admin publishes it. Anything the engine could not cover is flagged, not hidden.

  • Conflicts
  • Workload
  • Fairness

Auto Mode FAQ

Can software generate a doctor roster automatically?
Yes. PlanMyRounds generates doctor rosters automatically from your coverage requirements, approved leave, availability and scheduling rules. With Auto Mode it runs the whole cycle on a weekly or monthly schedule, from collecting leave to publishing the roster.
How often does Auto Mode run?
On the recurring schedule you choose, weekly or monthly.
Do admins lose control of the roster?
No. Admins set the rules, approve leave and availability, review flagged gaps, and choose whether the roster needs approval before it publishes. Auto Mode does the repetitive work; admins handle the exceptions.
What happens if a shift cannot be covered?
PlanMyRounds flags the gap for review instead of breaking a rule to fill it. The admin can then approve an exception, adjust leave, or assign someone manually.
How long does it take to generate a roster?
Minutes. Once doctors, shift types and rules are set up, PlanMyRounds generates a complete roster in minutes, which saves 30+ hours per doctor each month compared with manual scheduling.
