How “Scheduled Time” is defined

1. Source hierarchy

The system determines your scheduled time using this order:

1. Shift Plan (highest priority)
2. Work Schedule (WS)
3. Personal Profile

The system always uses the first available source.

2. What you see per day

Each day shows your scheduled time:

Important: If no shift is scheduled, the system always shows 0h 0min — even if the shift plan is not published.

3. Special case: No Shift Plan active

If:

• You have an irregular work schedule, and
• Shift Planning is not active

→ Your scheduled time will always be 0h 0min

Required time for irregular schedules

For irregular schedules, the system also calculates required time (what you are expected to work).

4. When required time is applied

If your scheduled time is lower than your weekly required hours, the system distributes your required hours across the week.

5. How required time is calculated

Formula:
Weekly required hours ÷ Minimum working days = Daily required hours

6. Distribution logic

• If daily hours ≤ legal daily limit → distribute evenly
• If daily hours > legal daily limit → cap at legal limit and spread across more days

7. Example

Calculation:
32 ÷ 4 = 8h

Result: 8h assigned to the first 4 working days

8. Key distinction

• Scheduled time = planned shifts
• Required time = expected working time based on contract

9. Quick summary

• Scheduled time comes from Shift Plan → WS → Profile
• If nothing is scheduled → 0h 0min
• Required time helps fill gaps for irregular schedules
