Shifts and templates
Navigate the schedule calendar
Move between week and month views and open the correct planning period.
1. Calendar controls
- Today returns the calendar to the current date.
- Previous and Next move by one week or one month, depending on the current view.
- Week is the working view for assignments and shift changes.
- Month provides an overview; select a day to open its week.
2. Recurring and individual shifts
The calendar combines saved individual shifts with recurring occurrences generated from shift templates. A recurring occurrence can be edited, which updates the template defaults used by its occurrences.
3. Enter dates as DD/MM/YYYY
Admin date fields display and accept dates as DD/MM/YYYY. You can type the date directly or use the available calendar picker; ElShift converts the value to its canonical date representation after a valid date is entered.
Use the visible day/month/year order when typing. Do not enter a US-style MM/DD/YYYY value into these Admin date fields.
