Updated November 27, 2023: We have updated the content below with additional information. Thank you for your patience.
We are thrilled to announce exciting product enhancements to our import and export Excel experiences in Shifts designed to empower frontline managers to achieve more.
Here’s what this feature includes:
Import a schedule includes time off and open shifts:
Frontline managers can import assigned shifts, time offs and open shifts through the same Excel file into Shifts. There will be different worksheets for those 3 entities that managers will require to fill in according to what is wished to be imported.
To respect Shifts settings, open shifts won’t be synced to Shifts calendar when imported through Excel whenever the open shift setting is disabled for a team.
'Export in a format that can be imported’ includes open shifts and time-offs:
Frontline managers can export, for a specific period, a schedule that might include assigned shifts, time offs and open shifts.
