Unassigned Bookings Process (SOP)
Overview
To see the job in the app, the cleaning company and/or individual team members must be assigned to the booking in the Admin Panel (AP). A cleaning team is assigned to a property in the property template. However, sometimes a cleaner has not been assigned, or we need to change the assigned cleaner on an individual booking.
GOAL: Ensure a cleaning company is assigned to every booking
Process
-
Every day at 8:30 am check all same-day bookings in the AP to ensure all bookings are assigned → Identify Unassigned Bookings
-
Every day at 3:00 pm check future bookings (one week) in the AP to ensure all bookings are assigned → Identify Unassigned Bookings (One Week)
A cleaning company may not be assigned for the following reasons:
-
There isn’t a cleaning company assigned to the property
-
The cleaner allocated to the property cannot attend one job at the property
-
The cleaning company assigned to the property can no longer attend any jobs at the property

Check the relevant PMG sheet for deactivation notes
-
Request help from the Offshore Team Lead if unsure
-
If the booking is a valid unassigned booking, check if a cleaning company is assigned to the property
-
Access the property template by clicking on the Property ID
-
If a cleaner is assigned to the property, check for notes as to why they are not assigned to the specific booking
-
If there is no system-generated assignment note or any notes on why it has been unassigned, contact the cleaner assigned to the property to see if they can complete the booking → assign the company if they agree
-
If the original cleaner cannot attend, another cleaner must be assigned
-
Contact all cleaners in the relevant PMG sheet → STR Cleaner Contact Details/Branches
-
Identify the most suitable cleaners then send macro → STR>SMS>SP>Request for Job or STR>SP>Request for Job
-
Continue to contact cleaners until the booking is assigned → If appropriate then assign the cleaning company to the property permanently so they can automatically be assigned to all future bookings
-
Communicate all property-specific details and special instructions to the cleaner that will not be easily available in the app
