Types of schedules

These are the different types of schedules that can be in the company. There are days that are holidays and you do not have to work, there are days that are weekend and you do not have to work, days with tomorrow time, days with afternoon hours, etc.

There are also days when workers start in the afternoon and end their working day in the early hours (typical in bars and restaurants). Other days start the night of the previous day and end at 07:00 or 08:00 in the morning.

GesFicher allows you to define the different types of schedules, assigning them different colors so that you can easily identify each workday. In the calendar option you can indicate for each day the type of time that corresponds to it.

Users with admin permission will be able to manage the types of schedules.

On the main screen of maintaining time types you can register types of schedules and search for some existing type to modify or delete it.

Examples

Normal 8-hour workday

  • It works in the morning (from 09:00 to 14:00) and in the afternoon (from 16:00 to 19:00).
  • The day begins and ends on the same day
  • It's an 8-hour workday
  • Employees are given an entry margin from 08:45 until 09:15 at the entrance of 09:00.
  • A 30-minute break is given in both the morning and afternoon. If you sign an output in the time range and it takes less than minutes off to return to work, it tells you all that time as worked. If it takes longer than indicated as a break, the time spent will not count as worked and you must recover it.

Festive day

  • It is displayed in the calendar in red to highlight the holidays.
  • The number of hours of work is 0 hours.
  • You do not need to define eer input or output range.

Night shift

  • The shift ends the next day, i.e. it starts at 20:00 the day and ends at 02:00 in the morning of the next day.
  • In this case, the hours count on the day the working day begins.
  • There's no room for rest.

Early morning shift

  • The shift starts at the last minute of the previous day, i.e. it starts at 23:00 the day before and ends at 07:00 in the morning of the day you compute the work.
  • In this case, the hours count on the day the working day ends.
  • It gives a resting margin of 30 minutes.

Extended description of the fields in the setup form

  • Day change control: Indicates whether the workday is completed on the same day or not. Several options are allowed:
    • START AND END ON THE SAME DAY: The working day is carried out completely on the same day.
    • IT STARTS THE DAY BEFORE: The working day begins the day before. It is useful for setting up working days that take place mostly in the early hours of the morning. Hours count the day of the end of the working day.
    • ENDS THE NEXT DAY: The working day ends the next day. It is useful for setting up working days that take place mostly in the afternoon and evening, for example the night shift of the bars, which can end in the early hours of the next day. Hours count the day of work.
  • Hours range 1 and 2: If a day is split in 2 turns, for example on the same day you must make a morning and afternoon schedule, identify the data of the 2 turns. If the day is made in a single time range, you must specify range 1 and leave range 2 empty.
    • Entry Time: Normal time of entry into the time range. For example 09:00
    • Margin before: Time at which you allow entry by counting hours worked before the normal check-in time. For example, if 08:45 is indicated, entering work before 08:45 would not count the schedule until 08:45.
    • Margin after: Time at which you are allowed to enter after normal hours without generating any alerts for being late for work. For example: 09:15.
    • Out time: Normal departure time in the time range. For example 14:00.
    • Margin before: The time at which you allow to leave before normal hours without generating any alerts for leaving work early. For example: 13:45.
    • Margin after: Time after the normal departure time to which it is counted as worked. For example, if 14:15 is indicated, it only tells you how worked until that time.
    • Break: Number of minutes of rest. If you sign an output in the time range and it takes less than minutes off to return to work, it tells you all that time as worked. If it takes longer than indicated as a break, the time spent will not count as worked and you must recover it.
  • Hours range 2: It should only be indicated if the day is split in 2 hour ranges.
