3. 9/9/2012 What is SubFinder? Interactive Voice Response System Employees & Administrators report absences via touch-tone phones. Automated Substitute deployment Interactive Voice Response technology isn�t new. You have probably used it thousands of times�when you call many companies these days, phone, electric, banks, etc, you hear a voice giving you different menu options. SubFinder uses IVR in the same fashion, talking you through the process to report your absences. You can always press a button to return to the main menu if you get distracted or didn�t hear the instructions. You know you are successful with your call when you get a JOB NUMBER at the end of your call. You will learn about JOB NUMBERS in a moment, when we walk through the phone system. Think of SAMS/SubFinder as the best secretary or office manager that you can possibly imagine. It manages absences--thousands and thousands of them, arranges substitutes�thousands of them, and generates reports to help DPS monitor and manage both! This system does not REPLACE the manual process that currently takes place. Eventually, this is possible---it is a �phased-in� process. Manual processes will slowly be replaced by this automated functionality. Interactive Voice Response technology isn�t new.

11. 9/9/2012 Process Overview The process begins when an employee or site administrator reports an absence. SAMS/SubFinder creates a job from that absence and asks if a substitute is required. If the answer is yes, then SAMS/SubFinder begins searching for a qualified substitute. After locating a substitute, SAMS/SubFinder calls the substitute and provides details about the job (where, replacing whom, the hours and special instructions and/or site directions if provided). In this example, we assumed the first substitute called is also ill and therefore declines the job. SAMS/SubFinder then searches again and contacts another substitute. This substitute happily accepts the job and is provided all of the job details by SAMS/SubFinder. SAMS/SubFinder receives updated employee data from PeopleSoft and eventually will provide exception time data to PeopleSoft Time and Labor for timesheet processing.The process begins when an employee or site administrator reports an absence.
