Shift Assignment

Shift Assignment

An employee is given a specific shift type for a predetermined amount of time through the creation of a shift assignment.

1. Prerequisites

These must first be created before you can make a shift assignment:

  • Employee
  • Shift Type

2. How to create a Shift Assignment

Employees may be given shifts by their employers in some organizations or may request a shift in others. Employees can create a Shift Request in the latter scenario. When a shift request is approved and submitted, a shift assignment for an employee is automatically created.
