Day Part Sets can be configured to divide your work day into blocks of time for forecasting and reporting purposes.  Within each Day Part Set, you can define day parts by start and end time and associate it with a forecast or shift filter.  Some examples of day parts are:  Breakfast, Brunch, Lunch, Happy Hour and Dinner.  Each Day Part Set can be assigned to a Labor Definition.
