Shift category

A shift category is a group page for shifts. The shift categories are used for e.g. preferences, rotations, fairness and shift category limitations. You can also lock a shift category in Schedules.

An important use for shift categories is to divide open hours into smaller intervals.

Examples:

Early: Shifts that start and end early
Day: Shifts with normal day work time
Late: Shifts that start and end late

Shift categories have a color and a short name which are used to display them in Schedules.
