What is the Booking Request Tracker?
The Booking Request Tracker gives you live updates after you send a booking request to locums. Instead of wondering what’s happening, you can see your request being processed in real time.
How It Works
After you click Send Booking Request, the tracker page will automatically appear showing:
Locums Notified – How many qualified locums received your request.
Request Views – How many locums opened your booking details.
Schedule Checking – How many locums are checking if they can work your shift.
Final Status – When a locum accepts your shift.
Example Updates You Might See
