Manage employee work schedules efficiently
The Work Shifts module in Office-X allows admins to create, assign, and manage employee work schedules in both weekly and monthly views. This ensures that every employee’s working hour and break times are well-organized and easy to track.
Dashboard Overview #
When you open the Work Shifts page, you’ll see a clear summary of your current scheduling data:
| Summary | Description |
|---|---|
| Total Employees | Number of employees under the schedule |
| Total Shifts | Total number of shift templates created |
| Total Shifted Working Hours | Combined total working hours for all active shifts |
You can easily toggle between Weekly and Monthly views to see work schedules as per your preference.
A date range filter allows you to view shifts between any two dates — perfect for reviewing previous weeks or upcoming schedules.
Weekly & Monthly Schedule View #
In the Weekly View, you’ll see all employees listed on the left and each day of the week across the top.
Each employee row displays their assigned shifts, for example:
- 9:00 AM – 6:00 PM (8h work, 1h break)
- 6:00 PM – 3:00 AM (Night Shift) (8h work, 1h break)
Admins can click “+ Add Shift” to add or modify an employee’s schedule for that day.
Employees, however, cannot create or edit shifts — they can only view their assigned schedules.
You can also print the current view or export it to Excel for record keeping.
Add Bulk Shift #
At the top, you’ll find the Add Bulk Shift button — this lets admins create and assign a work shift to multiple employees at once.
Add Work Shift #
When creating a new shift schedule, fill in the following details:
| Field | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Shift Period | Start and End Date of the shift | Oct 22, 2025 – Oct 28, 2025 |
| Shift Time | Start and End Time | 9:00 AM – 6:00 PM |
| Select Employees | Choose one or more employees to assign | John Doe, Md. Anisur Rahman |
After selecting employees, you can configure their Weekly Schedule & Break Times:
- Select active working days (e.g., Mon–Fri)
- Define daily break durations (in minutes)
This ensures flexible scheduling for both regular and shift-based employees.
Print Shifts #
From the Work Shifts dashboard, admins can print a shift schedule to maintain physical copies or display it in the workplace notice board.
Why It’s Useful #
The Work Shifts feature ensures that organizations — whether operating day, night, or rotating shifts — can maintain structured scheduling for all employees.
It provides clear visibility to both management and staff, reducing confusion and improving time management.
Summary #
The Work Shifts module in Office-X provides a centralized interface for creating, assigning, and managing employee schedules. Admins can organize shifts weekly or monthly, assign shifts to individual or multiple employees, define break times, and export or print schedules.
