Configuring employee Schedules in ProTrack Warehouse provides a pretty good approximation of when employees will be working, but aren't perfect because employees may come in early or late, and likewise may leave early or late. In such cases, it's often necessary to adjust the scheduled start and end times, with the employee's actual start and end times. This is accomplished using either a Time and Attendance data feed or by editing the times manually. In cases where the start or end times need to be changed drastically due to the employee not being assigned to the correct Schedule Group, the buffer window may first need to be extended. The buffer window is a range of time in which if any assignments come into ProTrack during that time frame, the schedule will automatically extend to accept.
