Workload forecasting

Forecast store workload to plan labor and tasks accurately.

What it is

Store labor is rostered weeks ahead, while the work itself moves with demand, deliveries and promotions. Linkube derives workload from the same forecasts that drive replenishment — expected sales, inbound delivery volumes, shelf filling and promotion setup — and converts it into hours by task and time slot. Store managers plan rosters against predicted work rather than last year's averages.

What you get

  • Labor hours derived from forecast deliveries and sales
  • Task-level workload by store, day and time slot
  • Rosters aligned to promotion setups and goods flow
  • Fewer overstaffed quiet hours and understaffed peaks

How it works

    Project sales, delivery volumes and task load per store and interval

  2. 02

    Balance required hours against roster rules and cost targets
