You can map multiple employees to a rota schedule, so that these employees inherit the shift schedule defined in the rota schedule. Find out more.


Employees inheriting the schedules: The Employee Rota Schedule Mapping activity is used to map the individual employees to the rota schedule. This implies that each employee who is mapped will inherit the schedule.

Viewing the Rota Schedule Details: You can view the rota schedule details for a given month and year. The system shows you, in a calendar form, the shift or shifts occurring on each day of the entire month. These details are based on the information you entered in the Map Employee-Rota Schedule page.

Viewing the Employee Timetable: After you map the employees to rota schedules, you are to enter the actual attendance of employees in the Employee Attendance Processing component. After the system processes these attendance details, you can view the employee attendance in the Employee Time Table page and compare it to the timings of the shift to which he/she is associated. In effect, the employee timetable shows you

View rota schedule details for a specified month and year

Before mapping individual employees to a rota schedule, you can take a quick look at the rota schedule details for a given month. The rota schedule details consist of the date on which each shift is scheduled, the number of weekly offs and holidays

Can you schedule shifts on holidays?

 You can indicate whether shifts can be scheduled on holidays, through specifying Yes or No in the Create Rota Plan page. If you allow shifts to be scheduled on holidays, the system will treat the employees attendance on the holiday as either overtime or compensatory off. This will depend on what you chose in the Set Attendance Parameters page, where you are to explicitly define whether employees attendance on a holiday must be treated as

If you do not allow shifts to be scheduled on holidays, any attendance of the employee on holidays will be handled by the stored procedure rules.

Can an employee change his shift timings?

An employee can deviate in shift timings depending on the type of time deviation permission defined for the rota plan from which his rota schedule is derived. The type of time deviation permission could be Not Allowed, With Relaxed Hours or With Fixed Hours.

If the type of deviation permission is With Relaxed Hours, an employee can deviate from the timings of his scheduled shift, through one of the following methods:

Employee Time Deviation: Through the Record Employee Shift Deviation activity, a HR person can enter the employees deviations in shift timings, for a given date. The deviation can be for

Employee Time Deviation, In Bulk: Through the Record Employee Shift Deviation - Bulk activity, a HR person can enter time deviation, in bulk, for the employees mapped to a rota schedule. Just as in the Record Employee Shift Deviation activity, deviation can be for the shift start time, end time and for the timings of the work sessions and break sessions of which the shift consists.

Employee Self Service: Through the Employee Self service component, an employee can request for a deviation in the start time and end time of his scheduled shift. He can use the following:

The request will come into effect only after the supervisor authorizes this time deviation request. While authorizing, he can edit the following

After the time deviation request is authorized, the update is reflected in the Employee Timetable.

Can an employee switch from his allocated shift?

An employee can deviate in shift timings depending on the type of shift deviation permission defined for the rota plan from which his rota schedule is derived. The type of time deviation permission could be Allowed or Not Allowed.

If the type of deviation permission is Allowed, an employee can deviate from the timings of his scheduled shift, through one of the following methods:

Employee Shift Deviation: Through the Record Employee Shift Deviation activity, a HR person can enter the employees deviations in shift for an effective period. The name of the shift to which the employee must transferred is specified, as well.

Employee Shift Deviation, In Bulk: Through the Record Employee Shift Deviation - Bulk activity, a HR person can enter shift deviation, in bulk, for the employees mapped to a plan. The name of the shift to which the employee must transferred is specified, as well. Just as in the Record Employee Shift Deviation activity, shift deviation can be for an effective period.

Employee Self Service: Through the Employee Self service component, an employee can request for a deviation in his scheduled shift. He specifies the name of the shift to which a transfer is required. He can use the following:

The request will come into effect only after the supervisor authorizes this shift deviation request. While authorizing, he can edit the following

After the shift deviation request is authorized, the update is reflected in the Employee Timetable.

Is break time considered during attendance processing?

This will depend on whether Inclusive or Exclusive was chosen for the rota plan from which the rota schedule was derived. If Inclusive was chosen, the system will include the break time in the number of working hours for which the employee will be paid. Otherwise, the break time will be excluded.

Go to top

Is compensatory off allowed?

Compensatory off can be allowed, if shifts are scheduled on holidays.

Whether shifts can be scheduled on a holiday will depend upon what is defined for the specific rota plan from which the employees rota schedule is derived. If the rota plan allows scheduling shifts on holidays, the system will treat the employees attendance on the holiday as either Compensatory off, or Overtime, depending on the choice

If shifts are not scheduled on holidays, compensatory off can be allowed only through stored procedure rules

How is overtime calculated?

The overtime method of calculation is defined for the rota plan from which the employees rota schedule or adhoc schedule is defined. Overtime can be calculated through

The overtime conversion table can co-exist with  the stored procedure rule, to determine overtime calculations But if there is a conflict, the stored procedure rule will prevail.

Can you create spot schedules?

You can create spot schedules for any employee in the organization. The Quick Employee Rota Schedule Mapping activity allows you to map individual employees to a rota schedule at any time. Although the rota schedules are already created, you can map employees to the rota schedule. Essentially, this activity takes care of situations where new employees need to be fitted into a rota schedule

This activity consists of specifying the employee who will be mapped, and the rota schedule to which the employee will be mapped. The number of the assignment based on which he is mapped must be specified as well, because mapping is assignment-based. Finally, you are to specify the date from which the mapping will be effective. By default, the employees mapping will be effective until the effective to date of the rota schedule.
