Live Labour Journal

The Live Labour Journal is a centralized page that provides an overview of your shifts within a specific timeframe and allows you to manage them efficiently.

Structure​

The page is organized into the following main areas:

1. Time Navigation​

At the top of the page, you have controls to navigate through time:

  • Now: Quickly jump to the current week.
  • Previous/Next Week: Use the left and right chevron arrows to navigate backward or forward in time.
  • Date Pickers: Select a specific calendar week or rail week.
  • View Toggles: Switch between Calendar Week (Construction Work) and Rail Week (Rail Work) views depending on your operational needs.

2. Search and Filters​

Below the toolbar, you can narrow down the displayed shifts using filters:

  • Client: Filter shifts by a specific client.
  • Work Site: Further refine the view by selecting a specific work site.
  • Division: Filter shifts based on the division.

3. Shift Grid​

The main area of the page displays the shifts based on your selected time frame and filters.

Selecting Shifts: To select one or multiple shifts, hold down the Ctrl key (Windows/Linux) or Cmd key (macOS) and click on the desired shift cards in the grid. Selected shifts will be highlighted, and you can then perform bulk actions using the toolbar. To unselect a shift, simply hold the Ctrl / Cmd key and click it again, or use the "select none" option in the toolbar to clear your entire selection.
