Hi,

What does the ‘Is proportional’ field mean on the rule ‘Limits how soon a membership period of a given category can start after the previous period’.  Can someone explain and provide an example please?

Thanks,

Tom

Hi Tom,

It means that the non membership period is proportional to the applicable period. For example, suppose you set the minimum applicable period to 2 days and the minimum non membership period to 1 day. Then the proportion is 2:1, so each period of membership must be followed by a period of non-membership of at least half the membership time. So if the resource is planned into the rota within the membership category for 2 weeks then the rule would mean they would need 1 week of non-membership.

Thanks,

Paul
