Step-by-step guide to planning shifts manually

• Log in to your haddock HR and create shift plans manually, with all the details and specific conditions of your employees.
• Click on Planning in the left-hand menu on your haddock HR home screen.

*From here, you have several ways to plan shifts manually. Choose the one that is easiest for you:

1. Drag and drop work shifts and absences / vacations

From the top bar on the left, drag and drop the work shifts and/or absences - vacations you want to place in the scheduler and shift planner. It does not get easier than that.

2. Add shifts

In this case, you only need to click the purple + inside the planner itself. From there, keep filling in the data the system requires and whatever else you want to add.

****IMPORTANT: ***To create a manual schedule, you must already have the employees, groups, and work shifts created in haddock HR.

*If you need more information, visit the help article How to create a work shift, available in this same Academy. *

Modify and customize your shift board however you want and need, haddock HR will learn from the patterns you set to offer you a better result each time.
