USAP Vacation Draw

Q: What if I miss my turn?
A: There is no time limit, but please respect your colleagues and take no more than 12 hours per turn.

Q: Can I change my pick after confirming?
A: You can undo your most recent turn within 10 minutes, while it is still your turn. After that, an administrator must make the change.

Q: Can I trade or share a week?
A: Use the split board on My Weeks. Before or during the draw, even before you pick, post a week you will split or would like to share. Splits are finalized after the draw: propose one on My Weeks, and it takes effect when the other physician accepts.

Q: How do I set priority weeks, or add a private note on a week like travel I can't miss?
A: Click the bookmark on any week of the Draw Board (on a phone, tap Add), or use Add a week in My priority weeks on My Weeks. Every week you add is one of your priority weeks: put them in the order you want, and optionally label one Must have or Want and add a private note such as "Traveling, Lisbon". Set Backup to have the draw pick your top open priority weeks if your time runs out, or Autopilot to have it pick as soon as your turn starts. Off keeps them as a wishlist. Only you see your labels and notes; administrators see which weeks you chose and their order. You can also mark a week Avoid as a reminder; the draw only ever picks your priority weeks, so it never picks those.

Q: What emails will I get?
A: A welcome email when the draw starts, a heads-up when you are one or two turns away, an email each time your turn begins and a reminder when less than an hour is left on it (you can turn these off on your Account page), and a summary of your weeks when the draw ends.
