  • Patent number: 11847593
    Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for determining long-range staff planning. Embodiments include determining a baseline measurement of labor needs over a time period of one or more employees at one or more entities and modifying the baseline measurement of the labor needs over the time period based on one or more constraints that allow the one or more employees to work additional types of labor needs at the one or more entities. Embodiments further include determining working times and job assignments of the one or more employees based on one or more simulated employees that represent potential employees to the modified baseline measurement of the labor needs over the time period and storing the determined working times and job assignments in the database for the one or more employees at the one or more entities.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 27, 2023
    Date of Patent: December 19, 2023
    Assignee: Blue Yonder Group, Inc.

  • Publication number: 20050226218
    Abstract: A multi-user telephone system composed of a plurality of user networks installed at the same general location. Each user network has a different telephone number and a plurality of VOIP extensions each having a different extension number. A server, upon confirming the address of an outgoing VOIP signal as an address of an intended recipient of the outgoing VOIP signal, permits the outgoing VOIP to be conducted to the internet. The VOIP extensions also can develop outgoing PSTN signals for transmission via a public switched telephone network. The server, upon detecting a PSTN outgoing signal, permits the outgoing PSTN signal to be conducted to a public switched telephone network. The server also confirms that the address of an incoming signal, from the internet or from a public switched telephone network, is an address of an extension in one of the user networks.
