The Automatically Generate Shifts field is used to configure automatic shift generation for an Organizational Unit and its subunits.

Regional Store Network

A retail organization wants automatic shift generation to apply to all stores within one region.

Configuration:

• Organizational Unit – Region
• Automatically Generate Shifts – Yes including subunits

Automatic shift generation applies to the Region and all Organizational Units below it without configuring each Store separately.

Manually Planned Branch Network

A bank manages shifts manually for all branches within one region.

Configuration:

• Organizational Unit – Region
• Automatically Generate Shifts – No including subunits

Automatic shift generation is disabled for the Region and all Organizational Units below it.

Inherited Configuration

Individual Stores should follow the automatic shift generation configuration defined higher in the organizational hierarchy.

Configuration:

• Organizational Unit – Store
• Automatically Generate Shifts – Inherit

The Store inherits the applicable automatic shift generation setting instead of requiring its own configuration.
