Shift Scheduling & Rostering
Payroll Africa supports shift scheduling and rostering with swap requests and open shifts. Employers can plan employee coverage while keeping schedules alongside attendance, timesheets and payroll. A roster records planned work; reviewing it against actual attendance and approved claims helps administrators prepare pay using the right records for the period.
Plan employee rosters
Use shift scheduling to organise planned work and give the team a clear roster. Keep coverage needs and employee availability in mind when preparing schedules.
- Employee rosters
- Planned shift coverage
- Scheduling alongside payroll
Handle shift swap requests
Swap requests provide a workflow for proposed changes to the roster. Apply your internal review process so a requested change is not confused with an agreed schedule.
Manage open shifts
Open shifts help teams manage roster gaps. Review coverage requirements and employee suitability when deciding how those shifts should be filled.
- Open shift management
- Roster gap visibility
- Review of proposed scheduling changes
Compare planned and recorded work
A schedule describes what was planned, while clocking and timesheets record attendance. Review both alongside approved overtime claims before processing payroll.
Scheduling software does not replace checks on applicable working-time and rest requirements.
