More options menu
Examples of roster colour rules may include:

Rules are applied from top to bottom.
Drag a rule using the handle on the left to change its priority.
The first rule that matches a shift will control the shift colour.
Add a Colour Rule
Click + Add colour rule.
Configure the rule conditions and colour.
Use custom rules when your organisation needs colours based on specific roster conditions.
Save Changes
Click Save in the Roster Colours section.
The new colour logic will apply to roster displays after saving.
Important Notes
Roster colours affect display only.
Colour rules do not change shift times, pay rates, contract status, or employment status.
Rules are checked from top to bottom.
The first matching rule is used.
Branch colours may remain separate and continue to show on existing branch badges.
Leave type colours and shift role colours can still be used as fallback colours.
Keep colour rules simple so roster displays are easy to understand.
Troubleshooting
If a shift is showing the wrong colour:
Check the order of the colour rules.
Confirm whether another rule appears above the expected rule.
Review the matching conditions.
Save changes and refresh the roster.
If a new rule is not applying:
Confirm the rule is active.
Check that the shift matches the rule conditions.
Move the rule higher if another rule is matching first.
Refresh the page and try again.
