    💡 Additional Information

    🧩 When Editing Schedule Pattern Assignments

    If a Schedule Pattern Assignment is edited and there are manually added schedules,

    • The manual schedules will not be affected by the pattern changes.
    • Only schedules generated from the pattern will be updated according to the new pattern ID.

    📊 Impact on Attendance Status & Data

    • When a schedule is edited, the attendance status remains unchanged.
    • Any associated leave, overtime, or dispute requests remain intact.
    • Editing or deleting a schedule does not modify or remove existing attendance records.

    🌟 Conclusion

    By using the bulk edit and delete feature, you can efficiently manage multiple schedules at once — saving time while maintaining accuracy.
    This ensures your schedule data stays organized, up-to-date, and seamlessly integrated with Staffinc Suite’s HR and attendance systems.
