Create Personal Favourite Times

Assign favourite times to specific employees to optimise scheduling.

Written by Amanda Larsen

How to Create Personal Favourite Times

  1. Start by navigating to your Schedule and clicking on an empty shift. Please note that the shift you select must belong to the employee for whom you want to create the favourite time.
    ​
    ​Tip: You can also create favourite working times while working in schedule templates.
    ​

  2. Schedule the shift as you normally would by entering a start and end time and adding a break (if applicable). You can also assign a zone to the shift, but keep in mind that this will also apply to the favourite time setting.

  3. If you would like to save the shift as a new favourite time, click the Add Favourite button:

That's it! You have now created a new favourite time exclusively for this employee 🎉
​

The next time you want to schedule a shift for this employee, their personal favourite time will be easily accessible at the top of the suggested favourite times. In our example, we have selected several different shifts as favourite times for our employee, Mick:
​

Another example would be to create specific morning favourite times for Mick, making them readily available whenever it helps with scheduling shifts for him.

Want to View or Edit a Favourite Time?

Go to the list of favourite times by navigating to Planning → More → Favourite Times.

Hover your cursor over the Valid Users field to see which users the favourite time applies to.
​

If you click Edit, you can view and/or modify the settings. The Users field shows which employee the favourite time applies to.
​

Tip: You can add multiple employees in the Users field if you want the favourite time to be available for more than one employee. If you want the shift to apply to all current and future users, as well as Open Shifts, leave the field empty. The All and Open Shift tags will then be displayed.
​

Quick Access: If you click the Edit Favourites link while scheduling a shift, you will also be taken directly to the Favourite Times page.
