Shift plans

Shift plans are for businesses where teams take turns, for example an early and a late shift. While a plan runs, it replaces the working hours of its staff; time off and blocked times still apply.

1. 1Open Shift plans and click Add shift plan.
2. 2Enter a name, Valid from and optionally Valid until.
3. 3Choose the Rotation: no rotation (fixed shifts), every week, or every 2, 3 or 4 weeks.
4. 4Under Shifts add shifts such as “Early shift” and “Late shift” with their working hours per weekday.
5. 5Under Teams add teams and their staff. The order decides which shift a team starts with; a staff member can only be in one team.
6. 6Switch on Plan active and save. The calendar shows who works which shift in which week.

Team 1 starts with shift 1, team 2 with shift 2. After each rotation period every team moves on to the next shift. On a staff member's page a note shows the plan that currently applies.
