What is a fixed schedule?
A fixed schedule is a schedule that is the same every week. The same employees work the same hours on the same days. This type of schedule is often used by offices.
How to operate a fixed schedule with Workfeed
You create the schedule once and save it as a template. You can then insert the template for as many weeks as you need. You can read how to create, insert and edit templates in How to use templates.
When you create the template for a fixed schedule, keep two things in mind:
Set the date range to one week before you create the shifts.
Select "Roles, time span and employees" when you save the template. This way, the employees are also included in the template.
If your employees switch between different shifts from week to week, read How to make a rotating schedule.
