Ask Ella to schedule a form
Tell Ella the cadence you want in a sentence and she sets up the recurring schedule — you confirm before it starts running.
Say the cadence, not the settings
The tour opens with a plain request in Ella's chat — which form, how often, and who it is for, all in one sentence. There is no cadence picker to learn first: you describe the pattern the way you would explain it to a new supervisor, and Ella works out which settings that maps to.
She resolves the details
Behind the sentence are real decisions — which template it actually means, which facilities or teams it should reach, and when the first occurrence should land. The walkthrough shows Ella filling each of these in and asking when something is genuinely ambiguous, rather than guessing quietly.
- Template match — Resolves the form you meant, not just a name that sounds similar.
- Cadence — Turns "every shift" or "weekly on Mondays" into an exact recurrence rule.
- Assignment — Scopes it to the right facility, team or role.
Confirm before it goes live
The draft schedule is shown with its first few occurrences and who each one lands with, so you can see exactly what would start running. Change the time, add a site, drop an occurrence — then approve it, and it joins Schedule exactly as if you had built it by hand.
Why it matters
A schedule that is a little wrong — the wrong shift, the wrong facility — is worse than no schedule, because it looks handled while quietly missing the people who needed it. Ella removes the friction of navigating Schedule for a routine cadence, and the confirmation step is what keeps a fast setup from becoming a silent misconfiguration.
