How do I move a break?

There are 2 ways to move a break


1: Drag and Drop

Locate the break on the Bookings page, click and hold then drag it the desired time

You can also click and hold the bottom edge of a break, then drag up and down to change its duration

If you move a break that is set in the Normal Hours Roster an override will be created, and only this one instance of the break will be moved


When the pop-up appears, check that the information is correct, edit if necessary, then click on Move to confirm the change


See Drag & Drop Breaks in action:




2: Open

Click on the break on the Bookings page to open it

Complete the changes in the pop-up window, then click Move

Again, if you move a break that is set in the Normal Hours Roster an override will be created, and only this one instance of the break will be moved


It's not possible to move a break in the Roster. Instead you can remove the break, and then add the new break. See How do I add a Break to the Normal Hours Roster? and How do I add a once-off Break (Task)?
