Shift Schedules

Shifts must be linked to the schedules so that employees who are added to those schedules can be rostered for work on the linked shifts.

Pre-requisites:

  1. Shifts must be created. To do so, review the How to enter a new shift article
  2. Schedules must be created. To do so, review the How to create a new schedule article

 

Step 1. Expand Schedule.

Step 2. Add Shifts to your Schedule

Company: Select your company from the drop down list.

Schedule Code: The schedule code is auto populated based on the schedule record you have expanded. In our example we have expanded on the Sales Schedule therefor the schedule code comes up as 'SALES'

Shift: Select the shift code from the drop down list of shifts which are linked to your company. All the shift details will be filled automatically from the shift parameters which were set when the shift was created.

Shift Sequence: The shift sequence is a numerical representation of the order in which the shifts ought to be applied for employees who are flagged as floating employees and who work on consecutive shifts. Consecutive shifts are those which are sequenced one after the other and do not overlap. e.g. 8:00am - 4:00pm, 4:01pm-12:00am, 12:01am - 7:59am.

If consecutive shifts are not being used, then the sequence "1"can be entered for all shifts linked to the schedule.

Save the record and enter a new record to link another shift to the schedule.
