Originally written in 1985 and designed to run in text based platforms, such as the Wang VS, Larimore Associates was one of the first companies in this industry to recognize the need for change and subsequently upgrade all of their applications to the graphical environment. As with each of the applications Larimore Associates develops, the Scheduling Application may be integrated with the other Larimore applications as well as with outside systems such as payroll systems. When integrated with the CAD system , for example, much of the duplicate entry of data is reduced. The key timesaving feature of the system is the ability to load the CAD Duty Roster from the Scheduling system. For large departments, this is crucial as hundreds of units are logged on and off during shift change.
Valuable time is saved and many data entry errors are eliminated.
