A new tap repair needs a place in the diary. Check the team's existing bookings and leave before choosing an engineer. A clash warning flags the problem. The office decides what changes. Choose an available afternoon slot and assign the callout to Alex. Alex sees the assigned work in his mobile day view. Plans change. Check availability, then move the same job. Know who's doing what. Keep changes together.

Most service businesses don't have a scheduling problem in the way that enterprise software assumes. They have a 'who's actually doing what tomorrow' problem. A whiteboard works on Monday morning and falls apart by Wednesday afternoon. Cushty's scheduling is built for the middle ground — visible to the team, editable from the van, intelligent enough to flag double-bookings before they happen, but not so complex that it needs a dispatcher to operate.
This page is about how the calendar behaves once you are using it. If you are still comparing categories of software rather than the mechanics of a diary, the category overview covers what scheduling software replaces and what it costs.
Read the scheduling software overview for UK service businessesCustomer phones in with an urgent problem. Office opens the calendar, sees which engineer has the smallest job today and the closest postcode, and slots the callout in. Engineer is notified on their phone before the next coffee.
A gas engineer has thirty CP12s due this month. Cushty raises them all from the recurring template in one action, and the office allocates them across the diary — with a warning if a day lands on someone's leave or outside working hours.
Engineer marks two weeks off in May. The diary knows, so it warns the office if anything tries to land there rather than letting it slip through unnoticed. Cover is the office's call — reassigning a job to another engineer is a couple of taps, but Cushty won't do it behind your back.
A customer cancels for tomorrow. Office drags the job to the next available slot, customers who've opted in to texts get a confirmation of the new time, and the engineer's day reshuffles automatically.
Engineer opens Cushty on their phone in the morning and sees today's jobs with the addresses, the site access notes and the customer notes already loaded — and nothing that isn't theirs. Ordering the run is their call; Cushty doesn't sequence it for them.
Scheduling sits between the booking and the work — these pages cover both ends.
