# **Simple and Advanced Roster Editing**

Roster editing now has two modes: "Simple" for quick changes, "Advanced" for full day-by-day control.

**What's new?**

We've added a new Advanced roster editing view, giving you a faster way to make changes across multiple employees and dates.

The new Advanced view is designed for bulk editing, with individual controls for each day including start and end times, status, labels and breaks. It's ideal when you need to update multiple shifts or manage more complex schedu-- l- es.

**Why we've added it**

The original roster editor works well for everyday changes, but making updates across larger rosters could be time-consuming. The new Advanced view makes bulk editing much easier, giving you a detailed overview and the ability to make multiple changes without jumping between separate screens.

-Simple view stays for quick edits.

-Advanced view is there when you need more control.

**Where to find it**

The Simple / Advanced toggle appears in the top right corner of the Edit roster panel when you've selected more than one date or employee.

Go to *Manage* → *Roster*.

- Open any roster to edit. Use the Simple / Advanced toggle in the top right.
- You can switch between views at any time, and your changes will be preserved.
