Multiple shifts

Multiple shifts and scheduled time overrides can be added to an employee’s work schedule. The main shift remains as the employee’s primary shift as of the work date. The Shift Pattern Shifts panel enables you to define as many shifts as required for a given shift pattern.

The Daily Timesheet’s work detail records are generated using the employee’s schedule shift instead of their work summary shift. The work detail records indicate the time between shifts with the GAP time code.

Daily Timesheet work details:

Shift Start End Time Code Hour Type
Shift 1 05:00 07:00 WRK REG
Shift 1 07:00 7:15 BRK UNPAID
Shift 1 7:15 8:00 WRK REG
8:00 10:00 GAP UNPAID
Shift 2 10:00 12:00 WRK REG

When an employee has two or more shifts for a day, the labor metrics are propagated to the work details followed by the overrides. A parameter called ALLOW_SHIFT_PATTERN_LABOR_ON_OVERRIDES is added to prevent overlooking the shift pattern shift metrics during the propagation.
