General Information
This validation rule checks whether a person is scheduled for more days than the set maximum number of days per week, based on various settings in Strobbo.
⚠️ Important: You can define how many days per week a specific status is allowed to work.
This can be set via Management - Settings - Statutes in the "Absence" field.
If you don’t see this field, please contact us via our support chat. This means the general setting is configured differently for your account (this cannot be changed by yourself).
For example, if you set here that a full-time (worker) should work 5 days per week, then that number (5) will also apply when you create this planning validation rule.
🛠️ How to set up the rule
Click on Management in the main menu.
Go to Settings.
Click on Planning validation rules.
In the top-right corner, click the green “Add” button.
Select the desired rule, in this case "planned more than set maximum workdays per week".
