Select one of these options to determine how to regenerate employee assignments
in the Staff Assignments drop
down:
- Regenerate: Regenerate the
entire schedule. This option deletes all existing shifts in the schedule
and generates and assigns shifts to cover the updated staffing
requirements. Note: Any manual adjustments made to the schedule are lost when using this option.
- Have the system assign staff but keep the existing assignments: Adjust the schedule for changes in staffing requirements. This option generates unassigned shifts to cover any increases in staffing requirements. Unassigned shifts are assigned, if there are qualified employees available. Existing unassigned shifts may be deleted from the schedule if they would contribute to overstaffing after the staffing requirements are regenerated.
