Use Cases

Working Time Model for Shift Assignment

Use Case

Working Time and Shift Systems fields control how working time definitions are combined with recurring shift systems.

Replace a shift system without creating a new working time model

Useful when a new shift rotation should become effective from a specific date while preserving the existing working time model.

In the same Working Time Model, configure:

Current assignment:

  • Shift System: Current Rotation
  • Validity End: 30 Jun 2026

New assignment:

  • Shift System: Summer Rotation
  • Validity Start: 1 Jul 2026

Create multiple planning models from the same working time

Useful when the same working time definition is used by different employee groups that require different recurring shift systems.

Create separate Working Time Models:

Working Time Model A

  • Working Time: Full-Time 40h
  • Shift System: Office Rotation

Working Time Model B

  • Working Time: Full-Time 40h
  • Shift System: Warehouse Rotation

Working Time Model for Parent Models

Use Case

Base Model , Working Time, Shift Systems, and Units fields control how existing working time models can be reused for new operational scenarios.

Create a working time model variant

Useful when an existing working time model should be reused while changing only selected assignments.

Details

  • Base Model: Standard Store Model
  • Working Time: Partial Workload 30h

Shift Systems

  • Shift System: Store Rotation

Units

  • Global: No
  • Units: Pilot Stores

Reuse one planning model across multiple operations
