Visual Indicators

Visual Indicators

You can create visual indicators in the CrewScheduler to give your employees a visual reference for certain events that span a single, or multiple days.


This is very useful for displaying things like FLSA Cycles, 'Blackout' Days, and more.


 Example Daily view:




In the above example, you can see that two Visual Indicators are present. An 'FLSA Cycle' indicator that spans 2/1 - 2/28; and a 'No Vacation' indicator that spans 1/30 - 2/2.



These indicators will display in the Daily, Weekly and Monthly view - as well as the Time Off / Event Calendar.

Example Weekly view:




To add a new Visual Indicator:


Click the System Settings icon in the top menu bar:



Then click CrewScheduler/Calendars > Visual Cycles.

​

You will see all past Visual Indicators and have the option to + Add a new one.  To add a new one, simply click + Add and then enter the name, start date, end date and select a color for the display. Finally, click Save Options.
