Creating shift templates will assist shift managers in easy assignment of shift timings and pay items for employees.
To create a shift template, from the dashboard, go to the Shift Schedule tab > Shift Template.
On this page, select "+ Add Shift Template"
Fill in the mandatory fields, especially the fields "Time In" and "Time Out". Below is an example:
Branch: The branch/outlet where the employee is able to check in from depending on their GPS radius to the area. Can be set up here.
Name: The name of the template. Ensure that it is easily recognized by managers.
Non Working Day: If this is a non working day shift, you do not need to indicate the other details.
Time In & Out: Using the two timings, the system will be able to track the number of working and overtime hours.
Instructions: Leave relevant instructions for employees assigned with this shift template.
Next, indicate the specific pay item you would like to use to pay out this shift. This is optional if you have already stated it in the employee's pay scheme.
Next, if the check-in and check-out timings in the previous steps have been indicated, the "Total Shift Hours" should indicate the total hours in between each shift.
If the employee's pay scheme is set to Shift Planning + With Shift Breakdown, we would be require to indicate the shift's hour breakdown as follows
From here, we will be filling in the working hours and break timing/hours. Using the "Hours Breakdown". Ensure that all the hours are accounted for.
In this example, the total shift hours are 7 hours and 30 minutes. The breakdown will be set as follows:
Break timing: 1 hour
Normal working hours: 5 hours and 30 minutes
Overtime Hours: 1 hour (using Multiplier or Hourly Rate)
