Edit a Recurring Shift

2) A dropdown menu with the options 'edit', 'copy' or 'delete' will open.
3) Choose 'edit' to open shift details where you can make the necessary adjustments.

Tip: If your new shift is only slightly different from an existing shift, it can be much easier to 'copy' the existing shift and make a few adjustments than to start from scratch!
