A Shift Assignment is created to assign a particular shift type to an employee for a specific period.

1. Pre-requisite

• Employee
• Shift Type

2. How to create a Shift Assignment

To access Shift Assignment, go to:

People > Productivity > Shift Assignment

Once the Shift Request is Approved and submitted it automatically creates the Shift Assignments for an Employee.

Note: The Assignment for active shift-type will be for a fixed period if there is an End Date otherwise, it will be treated as an ongoing shift with no End Date. Users can update End Date and status even after submitting the document.

Setting Shift Request Approver

A Shift Request Approver is a user who can approve a Shift Request of an Employee. Shift Request Approver can be set at two levels:

• Department Level: Shift Request Approvers for each department can be configured in the Department master. Multiple Shift Request Approver can be set in a Department.

When an Employee belonging to a particular department request for Shift Type, the Shift Request Approver set in that Employee's department master will be considered as his Shift Type Approvers.

• Employee Level: Shift Request Approver can also be set Employee-wise in the employee page

  If Shift Request Approver are set at both Employee-level and Department-level, the Employee-level Shift Request Approver will be considered as the default Leave Approver in this case.
