LFSO

Configurable rounding for fixed shifts

Rounding options can be selected to adjust fixed shifts that do not align with schedule intervals in schedules generated using the Staff Groups model. The optimizer uses rounding to align fixed shifts that may have any start or end time with staff requirements that are divided among 15, 30, or 60 minute schedule intervals. The rounded times are used when displaying the shift in the LFSO Schedule screen and in the timesheet when the schedule is published.

You can select the rounding option in the SHIFT_PATTERN_ROUND_FOR_OPTIMIZATION registry parameter. For example, the DEFAULT option rounds down the start time of the shift to the start of its current interval, and it rounds up the end time of the shift to the start of the next interval. For example, the location has 15 minute scheduling intervals, and an employee assigned to a fixed shift from 9:05 AM to 4:55 PM. This option rounds the shift when generating the schedule to 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Other rounding options are available.

See "Rounding fixed shifts" in the Infor Workforce Management LFSO Implementation and Administration Guide.

Manual schedule creation using Auto-Assignment schedule profiles

LFSO schedules can be manually created from Auto-Assignment schedule profiles. This creates a schedule for the teams, Auto-Assignment groups, and options selected in the schedule profile.

See "Generating LFSO schedules manually" in the Infor Workforce Management Auto-Assignment Implementation Guide.
