Setting up shifts

Shifts are used to schedule when employees work. To begin, you define your organization’s standard shifts. For each shift, you specify when it starts and ends and when breaks are scheduled. Once shifts are created, the schedule manager can assign them to employees to create a work schedule.

To add a shift:

1. Go to Administration > Schedules > Shifts.
2. Click Add Shift.
3. Enter a name, code, and description.
4. Click the Color Code circle to choose a color for the shift.

5. Specify when the shift starts and ends.

6. For each break that occurs during the shift:
   1. Click Add Break Time.
   2. Enter the start time and duration of the break (in minutes).
   3. Choose the type of break.

7. Click Save.

The shift is now available for assignment.
