See your entire workforce at a glance. The Roster module displays a visual weekly calendar where each row is a fleet operator and each column is a day - with colour-coded shift blocks.

Creating Shifts

  1. Click an empty cell (fleet operator × day) or use Add Shift.
  2. Set Start Time, End Time, and Shift Type (Day, Night, Early Morning, Split, or custom).
  3. Optionally link to a Job to connect the shift to your operations schedule.
  4. Use drag-and-drop to move shifts between days or fleet operators - conflicts flagged instantly.
  5. Set shifts to repeat daily, weekly, or on specific days for fixed-pattern rosters.
💡 Labour Cost Forecasting

Each shift shows estimated pay based on the fleet operator's settings, so you see weekly labour costs as you build the roster - before the week starts.

Leave Requests

Fleet operators submit leave requests through the Fleet Operator Portal:

  1. Fleet operator submits → request appears on roster (pending badge)
  2. Manager approves or denies
  3. Approved days blocked on calendar
  4. Conflict detection runs on every change

Automatic Conflict Detection

RouteNio checks for 4 conflict types on every shift change:

Conflict TypeWhat It Catches
Double-BookingOverlapping shifts for the same fleet operator
Fatigue BreachExceeding max work hours or violating rest periods
Leave OverlapShift scheduled on an approved leave day
Vehicle ConflictVehicle already assigned to another shift
⚠️ Always-On Protection

Conflict detection is automatic and cannot be disabled. When a conflict is found, RouteNio displays a warning and asks you to confirm or cancel.

Google Calendar Integration

Approved shifts sync automatically to fleet operators' Google Calendars. Updates and cancellations sync in real time.

Roster Templates

Create a week-long template and apply it across multiple weeks. Adjust individual shifts as needed - ideal for operations with repeating patterns.

Violation Rule Engine

Configure custom violation rules beyond the standard conflict types - e.g., minimum hours between shifts, maximum shifts per week, or mandatory rest after a specific number of consecutive days.
