Tailor your shift preview to highlight the most important details for your admins—whether it's job roles, locations, or layers. By customizing shift previews, you can streamline scheduling, reduce confusion, and ensure your team quickly accesses the key information they need to stay organized and efficient.

This article will cover:

How to Customize and Manage Shift Preview

  1. Start by heading over to the Job Scheduler found in the left sidebar and access the relevant schedule.

  2. Access the settings and enter the Display tab.

  3. Enter the Shift previews tab. By default, the details that will appear in the shift preview are the shift hours, shift title and job name.

  4. To change one of these fields, simply click on it and select a different option from the list. The customized shift preview will only be visible to admins and will not reflect on the user's end.

  5. To change the order of the fields, click on the grid icon and drag it to the desired spot.

Please note that only admins with permission to Edit settings in the Job Scheduler will be able to customize the shift preview.

What Does This Look Like on the Schedule?

Admins will be able to view the new shift preview in the weekly or daily view in the Job Scheduler.

Weekly View

This is what the schedule looks like when changing the order so that the job appears first, the shift name second, and the shift times last.

Daily View

In order to see an indication that one of your selected fields has not been filled out inside the shift, make sure to tick the option Show unfilled fields in shift preview, in the Job Scheduler settings. This will present all the unfilled fields for admins to fill out.

*Customizing the Shift Preview is available from the Advanced Operations Plan*
