Shift Smarter, Work Easier: Templates make scheduling faster than ever!

We’ve updated the filtering options to make it easier to find the templates you need. Template selection has been improved for a smoother experience.

  • Introduction to three practical options:

    • Group by: Categorize templates by Department, Job, Task, etc.

    • Filter by: Further refine template selection based on specific criteria.

    • Day: Filter templates by specific days of the week.

  • Also, when you apply a filter to your schedule module, the templates shown to you will intelligently match the filters you’ve already selected.
