|structuredtext=Weeks in Rotating Patterns are displayed in separate rows for each week name, with the total number of weeks displayed in the bottom-right corner of the '''Properties''' pane. Rotating Patterns containing a large number of weeks (for example, more than 30) display quickly on one page. You can review or edit a week, by selecting the row to open the properties for that week, or select the row to copy the entire week and paste it to other weeks. The Search function generates quick and accurate results (even when using partial search criteria).

|sectionHeading=Rotation types
|anchor=RotationTypes
|alignment=Vertical
|structuredtext=By combining the settings in the Weekly Pattern pane, you can create nine different types of rotation days:

#'''Day Off'''—The agent must be assigned a day off on this day.
#'''Any Shift'''—The agent can receive any compatible shift or a day off. In effect, the rotating pattern does not impose limitations on Scheduler for this day.
#'''Availability'''—The agent can receive any shift that falls within the specified earliest start time and has the correct number of paid hours. Scheduler also has the option to assign a day off.
#'''Flexible Shift'''—The agent must be assigned the specified shift, but the start time and paid hours are flexible within the limits of the shift configuration. Scheduler also has the option to assign a day off for this day.
#'''Fixed Shift'''—The agent must be assigned the specified shift with the exact start time and number of paid hours that are specified. Scheduler also has the option to assign a day off for this day.
#'''Granted Fixed Shift'''—The agent must be assigned the specified shift with the exact start time and number of paid hours that are specified. Scheduler cannot assign a day off for this day.
#'''Granted Flexible Shift'''—The agent must be assigned the specified shift. The start time and number of paid hours can be adjusted by Scheduler. Scheduler cannot assign a day off for this day.
#'''Granted Availability'''—The agent must be assigned a shift that falls within the specified earliest start time and has the correct number of paid hours. Scheduler cannot assign a day off for this day.
#'''Granted Any Shift'''—The agent must be assigned a shift on this day. Scheduler cannot assign a day off for this day.

You can create a Weekly Pattern using any combination of these rotation types, as long as the combination does not conflict with paid hours and working days constraints.

{{NoteFormat|For '''Fixed Shift''' types, Scheduler can assign a shorter shift than specified in the Rotating Pattern configuration if the agent has requested a number of preferences for the scheduling period. This happens because Scheduler treats this rotation type as a preference.}}
