Keyboard Shortcut	Description
Ctrl/⌘ + Click	Select multiple non-contiguous shifts.
Shift + Click	Select a contiguous range of shifts.
Ctrl/⌘ + X	Cut 1 or more shifts.
Ctrl/⌘ + C	Copy 1 or more shifts.
Ctrl/⌘ + V	Paste 1 or more shifts. When you paste a copied shift into an empty cell, the target cell’s date, tags, and worker are preserved while the original shift’s other attributes (such as time, breaks, notes) are preserved. When you paste 1 or more cut shifts, Workday deletes the original shifts and creates copies in the empty cells. You can’t paste a non-contiguous selection of shifts.
Ctrl/⌘ + Z	Undo the last shift action.
Ctrl + Y or ⌘ + Shift + Z	Redo the last undone action.
Delete (Mac) / Backspace (Windows)	Delete the selected shifts. You can only delete shifts in Draft status. You can’t delete a shift in a published schedule.
Enter/Return	Add a new shift to a selected cell.
Multiple shift select + Enter/Return	Open the Mass Edit modal.
Arrow keys	Move the selection between shifts.
Tab	Move the selection between shifts, skipping over any unscheduled day for a worker.
Esc	Clear any copied or cut shifts, and clear the actively selected shift. This shortcut does not clear pasted data.
Click + drag	Select any number of cells and shifts within those cells. You can add or remove specific shifts from that selection using Ctrl/⌘ + Click. When you select multiple shifts, you can use the copy, cut, and delete shortcuts to take action on all of the selected shifts. When you select multiple cells, you can use the paste shortcut to paste multiple shifts into those cells at once.
Right click	Expand a menu that includes Copy, Cut, Paste, Delete, Add Shift, and Edit Shift options.
Click on the row header or column header	Select a worker’s entire row or an entire day’s column of shifts. Shift + Click: You can select multiple workers or days.
