Shift Management

Shift Management in Maintenance and Repair settings are used to add or edit labor recordings for technicians over a period of time that are recorded from Paperless Shop transactions.
This may become necessary if a technician fails to clock into a job, clocks onto the wrong job, stays clocked in too long, clocks off too early, or just forgets to clock off.
Permissions are necessary to access and utilize this function. If you don’t see the option or are unable to use it, please contact your internal system administrator.
Shift Management Search Screen Overview

After clicking on Shift Management in the Settings area, a list of shifts will be presented based on the date range that is present in the upper right corner of the screen.
