Time Off - When You Have Overnight Shifts
A " FULL Day" time off goes from midnight to midnight on the day off. So if
you have overnight shifts Ex. a shift that goes past midnight, you will find
that our system may unassign the Employee from a shift you did not intend. When you grant a time off for Monday all shifts that the
Employee is scheduled
for that overlap those 24 hours on Monday will be automatically set to
unassigned.
If you want to prevent this from happening, please use the
" PARTIAL Day" time off instead of the full day off. This way you can
indicate what time the time off will start on the day ex. if the night shift on
the previous day is 6pm to 6am then you can create a partial day time off on
Monday that is 6am to midnight which would not unassign them from their night
shift the night before.
Time Off can be created in two ways:
1. To enter Partial Day Time Off for an Employee using the BY
EMPLOYEE schedule view:

Click the cell that corresponds to the day and Employee to open the Quick
Shift ADD window

On the calendar click the day to start the time off
Click the Partial Time Off radio button
Enter the begin and end times
Enter the number of additional weeks to add this time off
Click the Add New Time Off button
The Time Off is added and if the Employee has
set their notifications to notify them
when a time off is added or approved they will be notified by email or text
message.
2. To access the time off window from an
Employee's details section:
