This activity is used to start a shift. The action is available from the main menu under the option Work Status. If travel to or the work is started while off shift, a message will appear, asking the user to start the shift. It is possible to link a Start Shift eForm/Survey to the start action, where additional information can be captured. The survey is created in the Maintenance Survey form and should use Workflow Type Resource Start Shift. The survey should be linked to a Workflow Configuration of type Person Resource.
The resource should be defined with shifts. This resource should be set up as a mobile user.
As a result of this activity, the shift status is updated to Logged on. If a valid Start Shift-survey is connected, the survey is triggered.
