Definition and classification
Shift planning is the forward-looking planning of rosters and shift schedules, matching requirements, availability and assignment times – for internal and external workers alike. A good plan shows all employees and times in one view and allows a forecast against planned targets.
How does shift planning relate to time tracking?
Planned shifts flow straight into Time tracking and billing – with no double entry. Pactos offers shift planning through the integrated workforce planner (partner P&S), including publishing the plans in the app and push notifications when they change. That way over- and understaffing become visible early.
