The calendar on RotaCloud gives you a quick overview of shifts. This can be viewed as either a month or a day-view and can be filtered by role.
The calendar was formerly known as the dashboard. This change is currently being rolled out in stages - if you don't have access to this currently, you should in the coming weeks.
Calendar month-view on desktop
On desktop, your calendar page will give you an overview of shifts. To access this, go to your Dashboard tab then click 'View calendar' from the banner shown below.
The month-view (below) will show you all your shifts grouped by their role.
Below, the numbers indicate how many people are working each role on that day and there's also a summary of the total number of employees working and the cost of this on each day.
You can choose to view the information across 'All Locations' or you can select a specific location using the dropdown in the top left of the page.
You can also tick specific Roles you'd like to see using the list on the left.
Calendar day-view on desktop
To access the day-view, click 'Day' in the top right of the calendar page. This will show you your daily shifts in a timeline format and is particularly good for spotting gaps in your rota. Across the top of the page, you can see the timings of the day and, beneath that, the shifts for your staff. The shifts are laid out in order of start time and grouped if employees are working the same shift.
Employees' initials indicate who is working each shift and can be hovered to see the full name.
You can also choose to order the shifts role. This will show your roles in alphabetical order and will group your shifts together if they're the same - the shifts will align with the times at the top of the page using this view.
