Frequently asked questions

Answers to the most common questions about this template.

What's the difference between this template and the shift schedule template?

The shift schedule template is more comprehensive and includes monthly rotations and planning across several weeks. The weekly rota is simpler and more visual: a single-week view that's ideal for printing and pinning up in the staff room.

Does it calculate total hours automatically?

Yes. When you enter the start and finish time of each shift, the template works out hours worked per day and per week, plus any overtime.

Can I mark days off?

Yes. The template lets you mark days off, holidays and bank holidays in different colours so you can spot them at a glance.

Does it work with Google Sheets?

Yes. You can open the .xlsx file directly in Google Sheets without losing formatting or formulas. It also works with LibreOffice Calc.
