What is daily shift rostering?

• Daily shift rostering is a tool used to change an employee's daily shift for a specific date. 

Why use daily shift rostering?

• ABC Hotel is catering for a wedding reception on a Saturday afternoon. Due to the number of people attending the reception, the standard Saturday kitchen staff will not be sufficient. Additional staff may be rostered to work the Saturday shift. 
   

• When using the Variable Shifts feature then the system chooses the shift which best match the time actually worked. If you have 2 shifts very close together then sometimes you want to manually override the shift chosen. You can do this using Daily Rostering.
   

• Daily Rostering can also be used to see historically what did happen. So the Daily Rostering calendars can be used to show what shift an employee did actually work.

Which daily shifts are available for rostering?

• All the daily shifts within the employee's payroll shift are available for that employee.

• Optionally you can limit this list.

When a daily shift is rostered, the employee's daily shift for that particular day is overridden. The employee's clockings are then processed according to the rostered daily shift. All other days are processed as normal.

Daily rostering only effects processing on the day of the rostered daily shift.

Tip :

In many cases you may think you need Daily Rostering. This is because many other Time and Attendance systems force this on you if employees can work variable shifts.

However since TNA 2000 includes the ability to automatically detect when an employee worked, manual rostering of employees may become redundant.
