How can I configure and apply shift patterns?

If you want to create a recurring shift structure, follow these steps:

  1. Go to Shifts >> Configuration >> Patterns >> Create pattern.
  2. Choose between a weekly pattern or a custom pattern.
  3. In the template view, assign a name and organize the existing shifts in the daily order according to the pattern you want for your team. Drag each shift onto the corresponding day of the week.
  4. Once the pattern is ready, click "Save pattern". The pattern will then be available to apply whenever you need it.

 

Applying a pattern

To apply shift patterns, go to: Shifts >> Timetable.

Click the icon to the left of the employee’s name. A modal will open where you can configure:

 


1. Select the pattern 
In the dropdown menu, you’ll see all patterns created from the Patterns section.

2. Number of repetitions
Define how many times the pattern will be applied.

3. Start date
Select when the pattern should begin.

4. End date
This will be calculated automatically based on the start date and the number of repetitions.
