Recurring Shifts

Overview

In Astalty, you can schedule supports to recur on a regular basis using the Repeating Shifts function. This allows you to set up a support that repeats until a specific end date, for up to two years in advance. Supports can be set to repeat daily, weekly, fortnightly, monthly, or at other intervals, and you can choose the exact days on which the support repeats.

Repeating shifts can also be managed when unassigning or reassigning supports, giving you the option to update only the selected shift or all future shifts in the sequence. You can also view a participant’s repeating supports within a specific date range from their profile.
