The Shift Categories section in the admin portal allows you to define and manage different types of shifts for your organization. This section provides a centralized platform to create, edit, and delete shift types to accurately track employee work hours and optimize scheduling.

2. Creating Shift Categories
In this section you can create new shift types that align with your organization’s specific needs. Some common actions you may perform include:
Adding Shift Categories: Create new categories types by providing a unique name, description, and any other relevant details. This allows you to define different categories or classifications for shifts.
Defining Shift Duration: Specify the duration of each shift type, including start and end times. This helps in accurately recording employee work hours and calculating overtime, if applicable.
3. Modifying and Deleting Shift Categories
If there are changes in your organization’s shift structure or if a shift type is no longer needed, you can modify or delete existing shift types. Some common actions you may perform include:
Editing Shift Categories: Modify shift type details such as the name, description, or duration. This allows you to update the information to reflect any changes in your organization’s shift policies.

4. Saving and Applying Changes
After creating, modifying, or deleting shift types, remember to save the changes to ensure they take effect. Look for the “Save” or “Apply” button at the bottom or top of the shift type management page to save your changes.
