Schedule Validation Report

You can now validate the schedule for a given department, location and scheduling period directly from the workforce schedule page. On the Job view, select More Actions > Validate Schedule. The schedule validation process checks the schedule against these items:

Scheduling rules configured on the schedule generation profile
Workers' work patterns
Overlapping shifts
Approved or pending approval absences
Assignments for the department
Overstaffing and understaffing coverage variances
