2) Usage
Using the broken shifts feature is simple and can be completed on the roster or timesheet.
In the roster or timesheet, create or modify a shift and tick the box that allocates that shift as a broken shift.
When a broken shift has been saved it will be designated as a broken shift on the roster.
If a shift needs to be added to the roster that begins before the current start of the broken shift. Users need to tick the box that indicates that the new shift is the start of the broken shift connection.
If multiple shifts are allocated as broken shifts they will be displayed with an indicator on the bottom of each shift.
