  2. Click here: Agent → Shift Management

    Find shift and schedule entries

    Review Work Shift, Leave Type and your company’s time zone first. Return to Schedule Management → Add Schedule to open the add screen. For batch work, review Download template first; Upload Schedule can overwrite existing schedules and is not a preview.

  3. Click here: Agent → Schedule Management → Add Schedule

    Open a single-schedule dialog

    Add Schedule is the white button above the calendar (3 above), not Upload Schedule at the top right. In the dialog, choose Agent, Date and Shift Name and verify the date and shift. For an existing entry, select its calendar cell rather than adding a duplicate. Schedules do not switch On duty automatically.
