Working patterns in SelectHR determine an employee's schedule and are influenced by the start date, working days, and assigned schedules. This guide explains how to check and resolve issues with the working pattern calendar, ensuring it reflects the correct work/non-work days for employees.
📌 Note: The working pattern start date is the first date at which this pattern will become valid and can therefore be applied to an employee.
If you want to use the same working pattern for a number of employees, for example, 4 days on and 4 days off, but have the start date begin on a different day, then you will need to create two separate working patterns. They will both have the same pattern start day, but will have a different arrangement of work/non-work days.
