Enabling shift transition fields for manual schedule generation

You can configure field permissions for the shift transition parameters to allow users to enable shift transitions when manually generating a schedule. This is generally done to test the effects of different parameter options on generated schedules.

  1. Turn on Config mode.
  2. Select Scheduling > Schedule Optimization > Auto Assignment.
  3. Set the Act permission for the Min Transition Length (Hours) field and the Max Transitions per Shift field to allow a security group to enable shift transitions when creating schedules.
    The Min Transition Length (Hours) field controls the minimum number of hours that an employee can be assigned to a single staff requirement, which includes a combination of a job, activity, and department.

    The Max Transitions per Shift field controls the maximum number of shift transitions that can be included in a shift.

  4. Turn off Config mode and refresh the page.
The fields are enabled for the specified security groups.
