The new staff planner allows you to schedule breaks within working times. We recommend you to adjust your times using this new feature. This makes it more easy to set up or adjust your schedule in the future, and gives a more clear overview in the planner.

Situation

In this situation, you used separate working times in the morning and afternoon to get a break in between them. You can get rid of the separate working time after the break, by only having one working time and including the break in it. This way, you only see one working time on each date, which makes the planner a lot more clear to view.

This only makes sense if you have a regular schedule that repeats every week. If you have a schedule with different times per week, it is a lot of work to manually change all existing times. In that case, we recommend to keep your scheduled times, and start using the new breaks feature for any new times that you plan in the future.

Instructions

Start by clicking one of the working times before or after the brake. Now click: "Delete" and select "all future repetitions". Next, select the remaining working time and adjust the end time. Add a break by clicking "add break", and select the proper times to add a break to the schedule. Click "save" and select "all future repetitions" to make sure the working time is scheduled for every week on this specific day.

Repeat this process for all other working days to make sure the doctor has a nice and clean repeating schedule.
