What's Changing?
New functionality to allow users of LP (Labour Productivity) to set any shift to ‘Passive’ when scheduling employees.
Release Date: 30th January 2019
Reason for the Change
This will be beneficial when customers send employees on training, as they need to be scheduled but not impact on the rota. It also has no impact on demand planning.
Customers Affected
All Labour Productivity customers.
Release Notes
Fig.1 – The ‘Can make shift passive’ user permission
Fig.2 – New ‘Is passive shift?’ tick box
If this is selected, the shift will be scheduled as “passive” and have no impact on the demand planning or graph.
Wage costs will still be incurred and the shift will appear on the table (as other shifts also will). It will have no colour and be outlined in red to indicate that the shift is “passive”. All non-passive shifts will remain the colour selected and impact the demand graph as expected:

Passive roles will continue to function as normal, and all shifts created under a passive role will be defaulted to a passive shift with no option to deselect the Is Passive Shift? option.
