Fixed Shift, Automatic Rotation and Manual Override Indicators in Planner

Planner distinguishes shifts generated from a fixed employee setting, group rotation and explicit manual overrides. These indicators help explain why a worker appears on a particular date.

What is this option for?

Use them when troubleshooting unexpected assignments before changing the underlying schedule.

Before you begin

  • A group and employees with saved shift assignments.
  • Load the relevant date in Planner.

Understanding the controls

Fixed Shift
Indicates an employee-level fixed-shift arrangement.
Manual Override
Marks an explicit date-level adjustment.
Rotation
Shows the group uses automatic rotation.
Manual Schedule
Shows the group is manually planned.

Step-by-step instructions

  1. Open Planner and choose a group.
  2. Set the date interval, then select Show.
  3. Inspect the group planning-mode badge.
  4. Locate the affected worker and date.
  5. Read any Fixed Shift or Manual Override indicator on the entry.
  6. If the worker is fixed, open Workers to review Always Keep This Shift.
  7. If the group is rotating, inspect its Rotation Order and Current Shift.
  8. If the entry is manually overridden, inspect change history or the reset control before changing it.

What happens next?

The badges help identify where the visible assignment originated.

Important notes

  • Indicators do not replace the history or attendance registers.
  • Do not assume a manually planned group assigns every worker manually: fixed-shift exceptions are supported.
