Dormant Shift

Path: Cloud > Settings > Attendance > Shift Details > Dormant Shift

Dormant Shift lets you manage inactive shifts. Marking a shift as dormant:

• Hides it from dropdowns, scheduling, and report generation.

• Retains its historical attendance records.

• Can be restored anytime.

The Dormant Shift tab lists all shifts marked as dormant. All timings are displayed in 24-hour format.

Each shift appears as a card showing the Shift Code, Status, Shift Name, Shift Timing, In Range, and Out Range, Report Short Name (i) icon, along with a view (eye) icon. Use the Search by Shift Name or Code bar at the top right to find a specific shift by typing its name or code. Click Download Excel to export the list of dormant shifts shown on this tab.
