Staff break types control how breaks appear on rosters and how they’re treated for pay and reporting. You may need to add a new break type when introducing different break rules, pay codes, or visual identifiers on the roster. Defining break types correctly helps ensure accurate scheduling and payroll processing.
To create a new break type, follow these steps:
Click Setup.
Click Breaks.
In the Show breaks for field, select Staff.
Click Add.
Enter a name in the Break description field.
Enter a paycode if required.
Select the required checkboxes to define how the break behaves.
Choose a colour to display the break on the roster.
Click Save.
