How to Configure Overnight Schedules

When a facility stays open past midnight, the system interprets the "Close Time" as occurring on the following morning.

Example: Continuous Overnight (Sunday Night to Friday Morning)

If your facility opens Sunday at 10:00 PM (22:00) and remains open continuously until Friday at 6:00 AM, configure your settings as follows:

  • Sunday: Set an Open Time (22:00) but leave the Close Time empty.

  • Monday – Thursday: Set both Open (22:00) and Close (06:00) times.

  • Friday: Leave the Open Time empty but set a Close Time (06:00).

Single-Day Overnight Shifts

If you have a shift that runs past midnight but does not connect to the previous or next day, simply set a Close Time that is earlier than the Open Time on that same day.

  • Example: Opening Monday at 22:00 and closing at 06:00 (Tuesday morning) will be correctly recognized as an 8-hour overnight shift.

24/7 Operations

To set a facility as open 24/7:

  1. Check the boxes for all seven days.

  2. Leave all Open Time and Close Time fields blank.
