Bulk Create Shifts

You can create extra, offered, or unassigned shifts directly from the grid view or using the 'Quick Add' section below the shifts.

You can also create multiple shifts (either extra, offered, or unassigned) under the 'Bulk Create Shifts' page. These shifts are listed in the “Available Shifts” section for the relevant staff members. Do this under Shifts > Create > Create Additional Shifts.

You will be directed to a new page (below) with the information you need to complete to create the extra shift or shifts.

• Shift Type - Select whether you want the shifts to be either extra, offered or unassigned shifts.
• Venue - Select the appropriate venue.
• Shifts Times Quick Fill - Enter a time period you want to fill.
• Starting/Ending on … - Determine the start and end dates and times for the new shift.
• Shift Mode - From the dropdown menu, select the shift's status (normal, hidden, locked, or hidden and locked).
• Shift task - Select any tasks that need to be completed during the shift.
• Skills - Determine the shift skill that the extra shift is being created for. You can select up to three different skills.
• Quantities -Determine how many extra shifts for each skill need to be created. If you leave the field blank, then that skill will not be added to the shift.

Once you are happy with the information, click “Create Shifts”.

You will see a confirmation message that these shifts have been created. You can then click the link to manage the shifts in more detail (e.g., adjust times and tasks, send the shift to a member of staff, etc.).
