Adding an Active Overnight Period in the App
Overview
This guide explains how Support Workers can record Active Overnight Periods during a sleepover shift using the Astalty app.
Active overnight periods are used to capture any time you are awake and providing support during a sleepover.
Adding an Active Overnight Period
- Open your sleepover shift in the app.
- Select Active Overnight Periods during the configured sleepover window.

- Select Add Period.

- For a group support, select the Participant.
- Confirm or adjust Start Time. The time must be inside the shift's sleepover window.
- Leave Set end time off to record an in-progress period, or turn it on and enter End Time. Start and end times cannot overlap another active overnight period.
- Enter a Reason.
- Optionally select Add photo and choose Gallery or Camera.
- Select Add Period.

You can add multiple active overnight periods within the same shift by repeating these steps.

Editing an Active Overnight Period
If you need to update an existing period:
- Open Active Overnight Periods.
- Select the period.

- Update the Participant, start time, end time, reason, or evidence as needed. You can also select a duration preset.
- Select Update Period.
To remove a period, open it and select Delete.

Important Notes
- You can add a period only during the configured sleepover window. An in-progress period remains available to update after the window ends.
- Record periods as they occur and end an in-progress period when the active support finishes.
- Clock-out shows a warning when a period is still in progress. The warning does not block clock-out.
