Roster Work Patterns

Overview

This feature lets you store up to 4 weeks of default work patterns for each employee and use them to generate rosters.

Each day can have up to two shifts (e.g. for OSHC services that roster split shifts).

Work Patterns can be updated together (for all staff) from the Work Patterns screen in the Roster module or from the individual staff profiles.
