Straight from KRONOS, with the break math DONE, ready to PRINT.
The Daily Schedule Creator is an Excel workbook that turns a raw Kronos schedule export into a week of printed slot attendant break sheets in about two minutes. Export next week, click three buttons, and print. Every daily shows who is coming in at each start time, North and South slots split evenly, three 20-minute breaks and a 30-minute lunch for every slot, staggered so only about 30% of the floor is off at once, and who is out on PTO.
| Zone | Name | 1st | 2nd | 3rd | 4th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| N1 | Alex M. | 6:00 | 8:00 | 10:20 | 12:20 |
| S1 | Jordan P. | 6:20 | 8:30 | 10:40 | 12:40 |
| N2 | Casey R. | 6:40 | 8:50 | 10:50 | 1:00 |
| S2 | Sam T. | 7:00 | 9:10 | 11:20 | 1:20 |
| N3 | Riley K. in 5:00a | 7:20 | 9:30 | 11:50 | 1:40 |
Day-off swaps, PTO, reduced hours and bought zones often only reach Kronos, so a hand-built copy can be wrong before it is even posted.
Next week from Kronos, exactly as Kronos makes it.
One button reads it and keeps only your property's slot attendants.
Seven dailies with zones, breaks and who is out.
Ledger, color and margins are set for you.
The schedule everyone already trusts, turned into sheets you can post.
It reads Kronos directly, so swaps, PTO and reduced hours are already in it. Nobody retypes the schedule, and managers, techs and other jobs in the export are left out automatically.
Three 20-minute breaks and a 30-minute lunch. Each zone alternates two patterns so the lunches are spread, and crews are nudged apart so they do not all walk off together.
Every start time is divided into N1, S1, N2, S2 and so on. A setting decides which zone gets the odd slot.
Zones bought with MILES are entered once in a shared log with From and Through dates, and carry over week to week. One that just ran out is flagged RENEW?
Short shifts get the right breaks, late starters show "in 8:00p", early outs lose the breaks after they leave, and PTO and UPD days print in an Out Today line.
If a shift looks impossible, such as 6p to 11:30a, it suggests the likely fix, uses it, and tells you to correct Kronos.
The day and date across the top, so the right sheet goes on the right wall.
The attendant's zone, which is also their place in the break order, with room to write.
The lunch is shaded gray. A dash means a break is skipped because they are not there.
A small box beside each 20-minute break to shade when someone uses their one Extended Break.
Sun-Mon, Tue-Wed and Thu-Fri on 11x17. Saturday shares its sheet with the Week at a Glance.
A heat map of the percent of the floor on break every half hour, in green, yellow and red.
Floor Coverage shows how many attendants are scheduled in every half hour of every day. Break Coverage shows how many are actually on the floor once breaks and lunches are taken out. Each is one Ledger page with the days across the top, 4a to 4a, so Friday night stays in Friday.
Every cell is colored against the minimum for that time's priority: High for the busiest nights, Medium for most of the week, Low for the early morning. You choose the minimums and which hours are which.
Bold borders outline each priority zone, and the right side of the page is a watch list of the thin stretches, worst and highest priority first. On the Break Coverage page, a stretch that only goes short because of breaks is marked so you can tell which problems a different break plan would fix, and which need more people scheduled.
In Kronos, pick Sunday through Saturday, then Share and export to Excel.
