Normally, published schedules should remain unchanged since they have already been shared with employees. However, in exceptional situations changes may be necessary.
The system allows modification only of shifts that belong to upcoming (future) dates. It is not possible to change shifts related to past dates.
The schedule may undergo various types of changes:
- Changed/Removed Shift: This includes modifications to the shift hours, location, or the deletion of a shift.
- Unassignment from a Shift: Removing an employee from a previously assigned shift.
- Additional Shift: This includes extra shifts added to the published area
- Changed Assignment: Alterations made when replacing an employee from a shift.
Because of the changes, the overall schedule score may be recalculated, and in this case the system will identify any conflicts that may have been caused by the changes.
Assignment changes can be made in two ways:
- Manually
- With Scheduling:
Minimal Changes – This option makes small and targeted adjustments to the already published schedule. It is ideal for cases where minor improvements are needed or to handle unforeseen events, aiming to keep the original schedule as intact as possible.
Full Reset – By selecting this option, the system will proceed with a complete reset of the schedule for the specific period. This means that a completely new schedule will be created, ignoring previous assignments and optimizations, essentially starting from scratch.
Shifts with modified assignments awaiting publishing are marked in blue by default, so they stand out easily in the grid. This color can be customized through the Settings (Style), according to the user’s preferences.
