Creating work schedules

Administrators create work schedules for employees. They assign work schedules to positions or work assignments.

Administrators can specify the days of a weekly work schedule where time off requests are valid. Days selected on the work schedule assigned to an employee override the absence-plan-level week and daytime-off options.

  1. Select Administrator > Set Up > Resource Components > Work Assignment > Work Schedules.
  2. Click Create.
  3. Specify this information:
