Adding rows

You can add rows to a Master Rotation (MR) or One-time Schedule (OTS). This is useful to add additional employees to a schedule to account for organizational changes.

Adding rows in MRs

In an MR in DRAFT status, new rows are created starting at the start date of the MR. After an MR has been activated, rows can be added through row edit mode. The new rows are created for a specified effective date range as a new bulk version. The new rows must be activated before you can assign employees to them.

Adding rows in OTS schedules and OTS templates

In an OTS schedule, new rows are added for the entire schedule period. In an OTS template, new rows can be added in row editing mode as a new bulk row version for the specified effective date range. After the new rows are activated, they will be included in future OTS schedules created from the OTS template. The effective start date of the new rows must be after the end date of the last processed OTS based on the OTS template.

The initially loaded OTS date is displayed on the Add Row screen. When an employee is assigned to a row in an OTS schedule with a template, the end date specified in the template is used. If no template is used in the OTS schedule, the default end date is 01/01/3000.
