SHIFT LIFECYCLE
Timeline-based Shift Lifecycle
Define how a shift begins, progresses, and ends. Anchor time calculations with explicit lifecycle events. Detect and resolve open or invalid shifts. Maintain a clean temporal model for payroll and compliance. Support audits with immutable timestamps. DispatchFleet keeps this workflow connected across the platform.

CAPABILITIES
Inside Shift Lifecycle
Define how a shift begins, progresses, and ends. These capabilities show how DispatchFleet supports day-to-day execution in this area. They capture the decisions dispatchers and field teams make every shift. They also define the guardrails that keep data consistent when plans change. Scan the list below to understand the major functions at a glance. Next, the Features section breaks each capability into concrete actions, screens, and reusable building blocks.
Shift start and end
Supports shift start and end within Shift Lifecycle. Adds structure, guardrails, and traceability to keep operations consistent. Improves speed and accuracy across the Time & Payroll Tracking workflow.
- Start/end validation
- Status transitions
- Timestamped events
Event sequencing
Enables event sequencing so job execution is visible as work moves through stages. Provides state-based controls and real-time updates to keep dispatch coordinated. Reduces missed steps and improves on-time completion.
- Stage/status indicators
- State-based actions
- Real-time updates
Open-shift detection
Supports open-shift detection within Shift Lifecycle. Adds structure, guardrails, and traceability to keep operations consistent. Improves speed and accuracy across the Time & Payroll Tracking workflow.
- Core workflow support
- Validation guardrails
- Traceability
Lifecycle validation
Enables lifecycle validation so job execution is visible as work moves through stages. Provides state-based controls and real-time updates to keep dispatch coordinated. Reduces missed steps and improves on-time completion.
- Stage/status indicators
- State-based actions
- Real-time updates
Audit timestamps
Supports audit timestamps within Shift Lifecycle. Adds structure, guardrails, and traceability to keep operations consistent. Improves speed and accuracy across the Time & Payroll Tracking workflow.
