Schedule Validation
An advanced feature in Workforce Management is the use of validation rules.
You can set shift goals which must be achieved in order to successfully publish a schedule or print a report.
An example of a validation rule may be: 'There must be at least 1 manager working from Monday to Friday.'
If you fail to achieve your validation goals you will receive an error similar to the one below, this will show up when you attempt to print a report or publish a schedule.
Shifts will also be validated if they overlap with another shift or with leave, preventing employees from being scheduled for multiple shifts or leaves at the same time.
If you attempt to print a shift report for a schedule that has validation errors, you will receive an error, blocking you from publishing a schedule. Fix any validation errors and you can then continue with publishing schedules and printing reports.
