The Daily View by Shift

 

ByShift View

 

The Daily View by Shift presents scheduling information in a spreadsheet-like format that lists each shift down the leftmost column, days across the topmost row, and the Employee/Position Chooser along the rightmost column. Combinations of work hours for each shift can be totaled horizontally for all employees assigned to it. Total work hours and assigned employee/on-call head counts are totaled vertically for all shifts.

Each cell corresponds to a specific shift and date. Employees' shift assignments are shown in the cells of the table in a stacked format. Multiple shift assignments in a single day are allowed, but if an employee is scheduled to work a shift more than once, a will be displayed and it is up to you to resolve the conflict.

You can configure the Daily View by Shift and your settings will be saved until you modify them again. You can also perform many schedule view functions that are common across the schedule views, including the Daily View by Shift.
