A shift type can be linked to one or more shift groups, which control where it is available for scheduling. As an administrator, you can change these associations at any time from the shift type's configuration, adding it to new shift groups or removing it from groups where it should no longer be used. This is handled on the same form you use to create or edit a shift type.

Step 01 - Navigate to the Roster module and click the dropdown menu to the left of the "Configuration" tab and select "Shift Types."

Step 02 - Find the shift type you want to update and click the Edit button to open its configuration form.

Step 03 - The Edit Shift Type window will then appear.

In the Shift Groups field, select or deselect the shift groups for this shift type. Adding a shift group makes the shift type available for creating new shifts in that group; removing a shift group stops it from being used for new shifts there.

Step 04 - Click "Done"

Step 05 - If the change affects shift groups that already have shifts, a confirmation message appears: "Existing shifts are unaffected. This Shift Type will not be available for new shifts in Shift Groups it is removed from." Review it and confirm to apply the change.

Note: Removing a shift type from a shift group does not delete or change any shifts already scheduled under it. The shift type simply becomes unavailable (greyed out) for creating new shifts in that group, while remaining available in any other groups it is still linked to.
