Updating shift status
Keep shift status aligned with operational reality.
Shift status helps managers distinguish planned, active, and completed work. Keep status accurate so reviews and reports are easier to understand.
Steps
- Open Schedule.
- Find the shift that needs a status change.
- Confirm the date, site, and assignment are correct.
- Use the available action to update the shift status.
- Review the shift list after the update.
- Check timesheets when status changes affect attendance review.
What good looks like
The shift status should describe the current operational state without hiding attendance or approval work that still needs review.
Common mistakes
- Marking shifts complete before attendance has been reviewed.
- Updating status on the wrong date range.
- Using status changes to correct timesheet problems instead of reviewing the timesheet.
