Why does 7shifts allow scheduled shifts that violate labor rules configured in our account?

Question: 

Why does 7shifts allow managers to schedule shifts that exceed overtime limits or break labor rules configured in our account? Shouldn't the system prevent these scheduling errors based on our company settings?

Answer: 

7shifts is designed to provide managers with flexibility in scheduling, even when it might result in exceeding overtime limits or other configured labor rules. Instead of strictly blocking these schedules, the system provides clear warnings within the schedule interface.

This approach ensures that managers are not prevented from scheduling the necessary staff to operate the business effectively, even in situations where exceeding configured limits may be required. While the system alerts managers to potential violations, the final decision remains with them, allowing for adaptability in dynamic staffing situations.
