You can also now split a worker's assigned shift using the right-click action. The split keeps part of the shift assigned to the worker and creates an open shift for the unassigned portion. A shift can be split in only two parts and you can adjust unpaid and paid break duration for both parts.

You can partially assign an open shift using the right-click action. Toggling on the Partially Assign option lets you define new shift times and adjust unpaid and paid breaks duration accordingly. An open shift will be created for the second part of the shift.
