Working Roster Screen

The Working Roster is normally generated from the Master Roster but it may be set up manually. It is similar to the Roster in presentation and day to day operation. Where Colour has been set for a ‘Leave Type’, those shifts will display in pre-defined colour.

The roster comprises a number of Cells arranged in a grid. There is a number of features designed to assist you to set up the Roster. Initially you should note:

• Most actions are initiated by the mouse.
• The function of the mouse may be changed depending on its mode. The “Mouse Mode” is set using some of the Icons at the top of the screen. It is important that you become familiar with the various Mouse Modes in order to make the very best use of the program.
