Employee Preferred Job Sort Order

The Employee Preferred Job Sort Order prioritizes assigning employees to shifts that match their preferred job. Preference is given to employees that have the job required to perform the shift designated as the preferred job in their employee profile.

Employees that do not have a shift's job as a preferred job qualification may still be assigned to the shift. This occurs when no employees with the preferred job qualification are available or to satisfy other scheduling rules. This includes employees that have the job as a secondary or temporary job qualification. It also includes employees that do not have the job in their employee profile, if the Honor Position rule is not selected in the Auto-Assignment group.
