A shift is an employee’s working hours during the day. It is formed from the distribution of working and non-working activities every hour. This data is needed to plan the operator's total working and break time.
Shifts are created by the administrator or responsible employee in the Shift Types app.
To work in the app, make sure you have filled in the Activities directory. Shifts are used when creating work schedules and employee schedules.
Create a shift type
On the app page, click the +Shift Type button in the upper right corner and fill in the fields:
- Name*. The name of the shift.
- Shift duration. The total time an employee works and rests during the day, as shown in the Work schedule table below. This is filled in automatically and cannot exceed 24 hours.
- Work schedule. Allocate an employee’s working hours and breaks throughout the working day.
- Activity*. Specify working and non-working activities from the Activities directory.
- Start Time*, End Time*. Specify start and end time of the activity.
Click Save.
The new shift type will appear on the app page.
To make changes to the shift type, click the Edit button on the item page.
