Plan budget in.
Schedule out.

How it works

Four steps from a plan to a schedule that holds.

This is a playbook in the Ask Mandy Library. Open it, point it at a client, and Mandy does the working out against the current pricing rules.

1
List the funded categories

Pull each support category and its budget from the participant's plan.

2
Convert to hours

Cost each category at the current price limit to see the hours it buys.

3
Spread across the plan

Schedule across the plan period, holding back a small buffer.

4
Check the claiming rules

Account for travel, cancellations and non face to face time.

From the Library, into the record

Implement it for a client in one click.

Pick the participant, set the plan period and buffer, and Mandy saves the costed schedule to their record and logs it, cited against the pricing rules it used.
