What is a Shift?
TimeForge schedules are a collection of many shifts, and each shift is assigned a corresponding start and end time, as well as position (or job), and employee. Other information can be included with each shift, including whether the shift is for an “extra” staff member, the section or station being worked, and other pertinent information.
Shifts can easily be created for a specific day on the schedule or copied to other days on the schedule. Shifts can be grouped together into days on the schedule, and then can be used to create a template for future schedules. Additionally, shifts can be reassigned to other staff members, and are used by the TimeForge AutoScheduler to estimate anticipated needs for schedules in the future.
Shifts can be Viewed Graphically
TimeForge shifts can be viewed graphically, for easy visual display of the staffing load for the day.
Adding and Editing Shifts is Easy
Adding and editing shifts on a schedule is simple! Each shift needs to include a start time, end time, position, and an employee. In many cases, TimeForge can automatically pick the employee based on availability, requests, and automated suggestions from the TimeForge AutoScheduler.
