Employees who are absent can be hidden from work shift planning in two different ways:

  1. You can set employees who are absent for a longer period of time (for example on a vacation) to be hidden from work shift planning with the "Show absent employees" additional option.
    1. Open up the Additional option in the Work shift planner tab by clicking the "Additional options >" button.
    2. Set "No" to the "Show absent employees" setting. This hides absent employees from work shift planning.
    3. When an employee's absence ends, he or she will return to the work shift planning view.
  2. Another way to hide employees is to set their projects to have an ending date. The employees are no longer visible in work shift planning after their projects aren't valid.
    1. Select the desired employee in the Users > Employees tab.
    2. Set an ending date to the desired project to the "Valid until" field in the "Employee projects" section.
    3. When the employee returns to work, you must remove the ending date so that the employee would return to work shift planning.
