Copy and paste shifts
Reproduce a slot or a group of slots from one cell to another, or from one week to another, in a few clicks.
Copying shifts saves you from manually recreating identical slots. Whether you want to duplicate an employee's shift onto another day or transpose an entire selection onto another week, copy and paste works intuitively from the schedule.
Copy and paste a single shift
Go to Schedules → Schedule management.
Right-click on the shift to copy and select Copy.
Then go to the destination cell (right employee, right date), right-click and select Paste. The shift is reproduced with all its information.
Copy and paste several shifts at once
When you need to transpose several slots at once (for example, a group of shifts from one week to another):
- Select the shifts to copy by clicking on them while holding Ctrl (or Cmd on Mac).
- Click More (menu at the top right of the schedule) then Copy shift(s).
- Navigate to the destination week.
- Click More → Paste shift(s).
The shifts are pasted keeping the same days of the week and the same hours.
Multiple copy and paste is particularly useful for reproducing a group of recurring slots without going through the creation of a week template. If you do this operation very often, consider using the Duplicate week function or the week templates instead.
Copy a whole day
You can also copy all the shifts of a day at once. Right-click on a cell of the relevant day: a menu offers Copy day and Select the day's shifts. Once a day is copied, go to the target day, right-click and choose Paste day. The Paste option only appears once content has been copied.
Delete slots by right-click
From the right-click menu, you can also quickly delete one or more selected shifts, without going through the More menu. It's the fastest way to remove a few isolated slots from a schedule.
