Managing rosters just got faster and more intuitive. We’re excited to introduce Drag & Move Shifts in Roster Manager, giving managers a seamless, visual way to adjust schedules directly within the roster grid.

This new capability simplifies how shifts are updated, helping Roster Managers make quick rostering updates via a click & drag.

🔥 What’s New

With Drag & Move Shifts, you can now reposition shifts directly within the roster using simple drag-and-drop interactions. Key capabilities include:

• Move is now the default behaviour - Now when dragging a shift, it’s going to perform a move function, rather than duplicating the shift.
• Duplicate shifts is still supported - by pressing ALT (or Option, for Macs) while dragging the shift, you’ll see an indication that the shift is instead going to be copied when dropped into place.
• Move shifts across employees or days by clicking, dragging, and dropping them into a new position within the grid
• Move shifts between roles, groups and more - such as dragging a shift to another area, or department, to quickly update that detail.
• Work directly in the roster view without needing to open edit windows for simple changes, with a consistent drag & drop experience across Role view, People view and inside the Template Editor screen too.
• Real-time updates ensure your roster reflects changes instantly for better visibility and control

This builds on Roster Manager’s intuitive grid experience, where managers can already create, edit, assign, and manage shifts in one place
