How do I assign shifts in a timetable?

To assign a shift to an employee, you have two options:

  • Click the "Assign" button in the toolbar.
  • Or click directly on the cell in the timetable where you want to place the shift.

 

You can choose between two types of shifts:
 

  • Shift templates (for repeated use)
  1. Select the shift you want to assign.
  2. Click on the cell in the timetable where you want to place it.
  3. You can also create a new shift template by entering the following details:
  • Name
  • Abbreviation
  • Schedule
  • Activities

 

  • Custom shifts (for one-off cases)

Create a new custom shift by filling in these fields:

  • Name
  • Abbreviation
  • Dates
  • Time slot
  • Breaks
  • Activities
  • Select the employees
  • Comment (optional)

Click "Save" to apply the changes.
