Settings - Forms

The Forms section of Settings is the location where the content of the forms can be specified. This includes selecting the fields that are required to be completed as well as the order that the fields will be displayed. Currently only the Shift Form is available.

Shift Form

The shift form allows the user to specify the fields that someone creating a shift must complete. The General section contains many fields which are required and therefore are greyed out (1) so that they cannot be accidentally disabled by clicking on the selection box. Many others can be deselected from the shift form. For these selectable fields under General and the other sections, the orange checkmark (2) can be removed from the selection box if the field is not going to be displayed on the shift form.

Users also have the option of reordering the fields that are to be displayed in the form. To do this, users can click and hold the double-sided arrow icon to the right of the field name (3) and drag the field to the desired location. This allows the user to ensure that more important fields are higher up in the form.

Other options that may be available based on what is licensed include Labor Forecasting (events) and Shift Tasks.
