Auto Shift

Auto Shift automates the scheduling of orders on the Scheduler board. When enabled, manual scheduling actions are disabled to prevent conflicts with the automated process.

Overview

Auto Shift is a scheduling mode that automatically sequences and schedules orders for a location. When Auto Shift is enabled, the system manages the schedule, manual changes to the board are blocked to ensure the automated schedule remains consistent.
