Managing Available Shifts - Beta

To manage available shifts via the department calendar, please follow these steps:

Select the Schedules link from the top navigation bar.

Select the Department for which you would like to create an available shift, by clicking that Department's name.

All Available Shifts appear as red boxes in the top row of the department calendar. To manage an available shift click the red box.

The Shift Details section shows the information on the available shift, such as the location, the department, the shift type, the employment types who received the available shift, and the position that was assigned to the shift.

Scroll down to the Requests section. This will show you all employees who have requested the available shift. The employees are listed in the order that they requested the available shift. Click the green Assign button to assign the available shift to the employee.

Scroll down to the Unscheduled Section. This will show you all the employees who are eligible to work, meaning they are not already working. You can click Sort by Availability Set in the top right corner to reorganize based on Availability, Seniority, Weekly Hours, daily hours or Alphabetical. Click the green Assign button to assign the shift to the employee.

After you have assigned the required number of employees to the available shift, click the red Remove button. Employees will now no longer be able to request the available shift. All employees who have been assigned the available shift will still receive the shift.
