ShiftFlowr / DuPont / Setup guide

Step-by-step guide

Setting up a fixed DuPont schedule — every supplied screen, in order.

DuPont runs a 28-day cycle: four shifts on, three off, three on, one off, three on, three off, four on, then a full week off — worked here as one fixed shift type. 19 real screenshots: choose the fixed variant, set the shift type and anchor date, preview the cycle, then apply it to six calendar months.
