What counts as a user?
What counts as a user?
A user is anyone who appears on the People page. Users are broken down into 3 categories:
Employees: These are any users that work for your organisation, e.g., System Administrators, Branch Managers, Regional Managers, Finance Managers, etc.
Locums: These are self-employed contractors that perform shifts within your organisation.
Agencies: These are 3rd party businesses that you work with, typically by sending them available shifts and them supplying locums.
The total of these 3 categories will be combined to calculate your Total User Count.
How does 'unlimited' locum bookings work?
How does 'unlimited' locum bookings work?
Just as it says on the tin, you pay one set fee for the individual locum (user) and then can book them as many times as you like after that. For example, with a traditional agency you may pay £20/day for the same locum, meaning that a two-week booking (10 days) will cost £200 in fees. However, with LAL Unlimited, you would just pay the one fee for that same locum, making costs more affordable and predictable.
