Copy a shift

To copy a shift into another day or employee, hold the Shift key on your keyboard, then click and drag the shift into the relevant box. The shift will then be copied.

To copy a shift to a future week, hold the Shift key on your keyboard, then click and drag the shift slightly. Press the forward arrow key on your keyboard to navigate to a future week, then drop the shift onto the relevant day.

RotaCloud only allows you to copy shifts onto employees who can work the role assigned to the shift, and who don't already have a shift scheduled at that time.

Copy a week

To copy a week of shifts into another week, click Copy โ†’ Copy Week. Then navigate to another week and click Paste.
