Setting Up Shifts

Shifts define the expected working hours for your organization or teams. Navigate to Settings > Workplace > Shifts to create and manage shifts.

Creating a Shift

1 Go to Settings > Workplace > Shifts

2 Click "Add Shift"

3 Fill in the shift details:

  • Name: Shift identifier (e.g., "9-5 Standard", "Early Bird", "Night Shift")
  • Start Time: When the shift begins (e.g., 09:00 AM)
  • End Time: When the shift ends (e.g., 05:00 PM)
  • Grace Period (minutes): Tolerance for late arrivals. Employees arriving within this window are marked "On Time" instead of "Late". E.g., 5 minutes grace period means employees punching in up to 5 minutes late are not flagged.
  • Max Break Time (minutes): Maximum cumulative break time allowed during the shift. E.g., 60 minutes means employees can take up to 1 hour total in breaks. Exceeding this triggers Overtime Break alerts if configured.
  • Weekly Off (days): Days when employees do not work (typically weekend days). Select checkboxes for Saturday, Sunday, or other off-days. Activity tracking is disabled on these days for employees assigned to this shift.

4 Click "Save". A confirmation message appears.

Assigning Shifts to Teams

After creating shifts, assign them to teams:

1 Go to Settings > User Management > Teams

2 Click on a team to open its details

3 Click the Team Info tab

4 In the Shift dropdown, select the shift for this team

5 Click "Save"

Managing Shifts

  • Edit Shift: Click the pencil icon (✎) next to a shift name to modify its settings. Changes take effect immediately for all assigned teams.
  • Delete Shift: Shifts can only be deleted if not assigned to any team. If a shift is in use, unassign it from all teams first.
Note: Shifts are assigned at the team level, not the individual level. All members of a team share the same shift. If you need different shifts for different employees, place them in separate teams.
