Daily Schedule
The arrow icons on either
side of the [VIEW SCHEDULE] icon allow you to scroll through schedule
dates (these icons do not appear when the schedule has been launched in
a separate screen). The [<<] and [>>] icons scroll through
three days at a time while the [<] and [>] icons scroll through
individual days. The displayed date is located in the header at the top
of the schedule.
The schedule is displayed
in a table format with the hours of the day as table columns, and your
scheduled employees as table rows. A bar is displayed across the range
of time during which each employee is scheduled for the day. The scheduled
start and stop times are displayed in the middle of the bar. The number
of scheduled employees for each hour is shown at the bottom of every column.
The color of the bar defines
the status of the employee’s schedule. A blue bar means that the employee
is currently scheduled to work. A red bar means that the employee was
scheduled to work but will be absent for the shift, and no replacement
has been found. A gray bar means that the employee will be absent for
the shift, but a replacement has been found. A green bar means that the
employee was not originally scheduled to work, but has been called in
to cover for an absent employee. See Schedule
Replacement for instructions on schedule replacement.
Clicking on any bar in
the table brings up a detail of the employee’s schedule for the day in
the lower left-hand corner of the screen (if the schedule is being displayed
in a separate window, the detail is displayed on the main TimeForce screen).
The
Start Date field displays the
date and time that the employee is scheduled to begin work. Edit these
fields as desired. Click on the  icon to select the start
date from a calendar. The
End Date field displays the date
and time that the employee is scheduled to be off. Edit these fields as
desired. Click on the icon to select the end date from
a calendar. The
Schedule Rule field displays the
rule template that is currently applied to this schedule. Make the desired
selection from the drop-down menu. With a Schedule Rule selected, the
lower right-hand section of the screen displays the rule details. See
Schedule Rules for instructions
on setting up and using rules. Click
on the [UPDATE] icon to save the changes that you have made. Click on
[REPLACE] to schedule a replacement for this schedule. See
Schedule Replacement for
more information. Click on [DELETE] to remove this daily schedule from
the system. |
