Recurring shifts and templates

Stop rebuilding the same week — save a template or set shifts to repeat.

If your weeks rhyme, you shouldn't be building them from scratch. The Scheduler gives you two ways to save the effort.

Templates

Build a week the way you like it, then save it as a template from the Template builder in the Scheduler hub. Next time, apply the template to a fresh week and adjust the exceptions instead of placing every shift by hand.

Recurring shifts

For shifts that genuinely repeat — the same person, same slot, week after week — use Recurring shifts. Set the pattern once and miaHQ lays those shifts into future weeks for you. You still publish each week, so nothing goes live without your say-so.

Which should I use?

  • Template — the shape of a typical week that you tweak each time.
  • Recurring shift — a specific repeating commitment you don't want to re-enter.

Both live in the Scheduler hub under the Manage menu.
