Now that you have created a site and a job, it's time to add some shifts!

The Orka team has been working hard to make the loading of shifts much easier for you.

When you're adding shifts now, you'll be able to select Add Shift Pattern to bring up the new shift manager.

Add all your shifts at the click of a button...

Just select the days you'd like to post shifts on and add the date range of the shifts- giving you the chance to add as many shifts as you need with just one step!

You can click the view schedule button to see how this will look when it's live on the portal.

Once you've added dates, you can add times, pay rates and positions required too - to bring your schedule to life!
