Creating default shifts

If an employee regularly works the same shifts, you can add one or more default shifts to the employee record. Each default shift must specify a unique combination of a team, a job, and an MVS shift. The employee can then quickly select their default shifts in the Self Scheduling screen.

See Default shifts.

Note: You might want to configure your system so that employees can only select default shifts from the Self Scheduling screen. Normally the list of shifts includes an Available Shifts option that employees can use to select any available shift. If you want to limit employees to selecting only default shifts, you can hide this option in the security configuration.
  1. Select Maintenance > Employees > Employee.
  2. Click the Edit link for the employee for whom you are adding default shifts.
  3. Click Add below the Employee Default Shift grid.
  4. Specify this information:
    Team
    Specify the team assignment for the default shift.
    Job
    Specify the job assignment for the default shift.
    Note: The default shift only applies to the job specified here, not any associated jobs.
    Shift
    Specify the default shift. The popup for this field lists existing shifts that have been defined in the Multiview Scheduler.
    Start Date
    Specify the date the default shift is effective.
    End Date
    Specify the date the default shift is no longer effective.
  5. Click Save.
