How to Create Tags, Locations, Activities, and Workstations for Efficient Work Shift Management

Learn how to create tags, locations, activities, and workstations for efficient work shift management. A step-by-step guide for smoother scheduling and reporting.

Each time a new shift is created, you can assign it to a specific tag, location, activity, and workstation. Pre-defining these elements for each shift makes reporting easier later.
The tag, location, activity, and workstation are user-definable.

Let's consider a use case of a cafe owner:

Cafe Delicious operates from 10:00 AM - 10:00 PM and has two (2) shifts:

  • Shift Team A: 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM (late clock out at 6:00 PM)
  • Shift Team B: 2:00 PM - 10:00 PM (late clock out at 11:00 PM)

For each shift, the cafe owner wants to assign a tag, location, activity, and workstation. Here is how he plans to set it up:

For Shift Team A:

  • Assigned tag: meal allowance
  • Assigned location: Branch TTDI
  • Assigned activity: Business as usual
  • Assigned workstation: Cafe
  • Entitled break: 1 hour 30 minutes 

For Shift Team B:

  • Assigned tag: meal allowance
  • Assigned location: Branch TTDI
  • Assigned activity: Business as usual
  • Assigned workstation: Cafe
  • Entitled break: 1 hour 30 minutes 

From the above outline, the owner will need to create the following items before creating the shifts so that they can be assigned later :

  • Tag: Meal allowance
  • Location: Branch TTDI
  • Activity: Business as usual
  • Workstation: Cafe
