Shifts

The Shift module stores general information about shifts in your organization. Once defined, shifts can be assigned to labor resources and work orders, supporting calendar assignment by shift. Schedules can be assigned to shifts that can be merged with labor records as needed.

A shift can be tied to each work order created. A default shift can be defined for new corrective work orders using an available Work Order Preference or shifts can be manually assigned. PM generated work orders can also be assigned a default shift. If a specific asset on the PM schedule will be handled on a different shift, this can be specified for the given asset on the PM Assets tab.

Access the Shift module:

1. Choose between two options:

   • Click the Open button on the toolbar.

   • Click the Module menu button displayed in the List pane.

     The Module menu will display.

2. Click the Shifts option.

   • If you accessed the Module menu from the Open button, the Shifts list and the Shifts Work Center Home Page will display.

   • If you accessed the Module menu from the Module Menu button, the Shifts list will display, but the content of the Work Center will not change until you have selected a record.

   The shifts defined for your organization are listed in the Shifts List. Click a shift to open and view it in the Work Center.

   You can use the Filter field in the upper-left to limit the results to only those that match a particular Repair Center.
