Kronos - BC-Schedule Editor

BC-Schedule Editor allows managers to create and maintain schedules for their employees within Kronos. It allows them to add shifts or remove shifts from their employees. This can be done to an individual employee or to a group of employees at one time. Managers can also pay their employees from their schedules. Once the schedule is populated for the employee, Kronos can track any exceptions to their standard schedule.
