About Allocated Shifts
Using “Allocated Shifts” lets you allocate a shift to be temporarily applied for a certain duration. It is used in the case of holidays or when changes in an employee(s) shift occur for a temporary period of time (For instance, a temporary change from an employee’s morning to a night shift).
You can allocate the shift for certain branches, departments, designations or shifts.
Setting the dates of the allocated shift, the change will apply until the duration ends. After that, the employee is assigned the previously assigned shift.
