How to designate your schedule preferences.
Preferences will be considered when the system is creating the schedule but may not always be honored.
Navigate to Schedule > Schedule preferences.
The "Schedule Preferences" section has two parts: Start time preferences and Schedule day preferences.
Start Time Preferences
Allows you to establish any preferences you have for the beginning of a shift. You can create multiple start time preferences in the event that a primary preference is unavailable, using the up and down arrows to rank them in preference order. In this section, each day of the week has a tab, and various preferences associated with that particular day. After making each day’s selection, click the Save (floppy disk) icon.
You can use the table to copy your preferences across multiple days. If you would like to keep the same preferences throughout the entire week, simply check the boxes for the days that will have the same preferences then click Replicate.
Schedule Day Preferences
Allows you to identify which days of the week hold the highest importance for you in terms of days off. You may also indicate whether you would like to prioritize start time or day off preferences.
Each day is assigned a point value, and the total for all days must add up to 100. The more points you assign to each day, the more priority that day's preference receives.
Finally, you can indicate whether you value a specific day off versus consecutive days off.
After you are satisfied with your selections, click Save.
