The Scheduler has four main sections:
Date selector
The date selector allows you to view your organisation’s schedule at a week’s glance. Click the dates to open the date selector.
You can click the left or right arrows to scroll back or forward in the calendar. Click on any day within a week to view the entire week in your scheduler.
Click anywhere on the Scheduler page to close the date selector.
Roster
Your company’s roster is on the left side of the scheduler. It includes your employees’ names and codes, occupation, and assigned cost centres.
The Employee column is populated with employees that you have permission to view. Your Indigo administrator must give you access rights to user groups and the Attendance module before you can view your employees in the Scheduler. All employees must first be registered users in the Indigo Payroll system before they can be assigned shifts in the Scheduler. Employees' punches can be viewed by clicking on the clock icon on the bottom right of the employees' name cells; this will open a pop-up listing the employee's clocking data for that week. Night shift punches for the Sunday or Monday before or after the week are shown with a light blue background.
Users can record remarks on locked shifts when necessary by going to the locked entry's context menu, selecting Settings and entering the remark in the Custom Schedule Values tab.
The Occupation column shows which occupation the particular employee is assigned to according to their employee profile in Indigo Payroll.
The Cost Centre column shows which cost centre the employee is assigned to according to their employee profile in Indigo Payroll.
Click on either of the column headers to sort data according to that column.
Scheduler
The scheduler shows the shift presets allocated to your employees for the week. The total hours and costs (in euros) are shown at the end of the row for each employee.
