We create a temporary shift for Bryan’s holiday: Bryan’s holiday duty. The difference compared to the other duty created so far is that with this duty, we DO set an end date.

Configuring Duty schedule

You add a new duty as explained so far, by

2. setting the name Bryan’s holiday duty;
3. choosing the colour yellow;
4. but NOT adding contact Bryan;
5. ticking all day blocks;
6. setting Wednesday 15 November as Begin date;
7. setting Wednesday 22 November as End date;
8. leaving the start day of the duty on Wednesday;
9. NOT ticking the Customised schedule;
10. clicking Save.

The duty then looks as follows:

The result of this added duty can be easily seen in the duty schedule (Month overview):

The yellow period indicates Bryan’s holiday. Since this duty projects across existing duties, the symbol Overlapping shifts appears. This is just a warning that an overlapping shift has been set.

• When this is an intended overlap, like a holiday, this is not a problem.
• If it is an unintended overlap, then there was probably a mistake in setting up one or more duties. Right-click the Overlapping shifts symbol in the calendar to easily see which duties have been set. The first duty mentioned is active.
