Use the pattern you already know

Copy the shifts.
Check what has changed.

Choose a week and copy its shifts to new dates. Shifts stay open and unallocated until you check leave, assign people and publish.

Reuse the pattern, not last week’s assumptions

Include allocated shifts in the copy when needed. People still need to be assigned to the new week.

Review before you publish

Check the dates, locations, availability and cover your team needs.

A few practical questions

Before you decide.

Can we reuse the same shifts each week?

Yes. Use Copy Week or saved shift templates. Copied shifts are open and unallocated, so you review and assign people before publishing.

Does it track breaks and multiple work periods?

Yes. Attendance tools include multiple clock-ins and clock-outs within a shift, with totals for hours and breaks.

Does it connect to our payroll software?

Tell us which payroll system you use. The connection, record formats and setup need to be checked before anything is agreed.
