A roster
defines the work schedule for employees over a given period of time:
the days they are due to work and the rest days. A roster is a
repeating cycle which can consist of any number of days. This screen allows an Optimum System Administrator
to view and maintain rosters.
For each day in
the roster, the times that the employee is expected to work are
defined using the Work Pattern
Maintenance screen. A roster is made up of one or more work
patterns. Before defining a roster using this screen you must make
sure that all the work patterns which are to included in the roster
have been defined on the Work Pattern Maintenance screen.
