Upgrade information

Shift premium zones are configured on an existing, pre-5.0.5.0 release page, which is shared by existing rules. To implement the Shift Premium Zone Rule, several changes were made to the Shift Premium Zone page, including adding new parameters and hiding parameters not used by the new Shift Premium Zone Rule.

Proper configuration of the Shift Premium Zone Rule varies, depending on whether you are configuring the rule in a version of Workbrain upgraded to the 5.0.5.0 release, or if the application was a new install, using the 5.0.5.0 (or later) release.

If you are configuring the Shift Premium Zone Rule on a new installation of Workforce Management, all the parameters required to configure the Shift Premium Zone Rule are displayed by default. No additional configuration is required.

For upgraded versions of Workbrain:

By default, new parameters used by the Shift Premium Zone Rule are hidden on the Shift Premium Zone page. To use the Shift Premium Zone Rule, you must configure the page to display these parameters:
