Using the Scheduler and Swapper

SCHEDULER

1) Two ways to post a schedule

    1. Ad-hoc

By clicking on the department name on the schedule, the system allows you to create a shift for just that particular day, and assign to a particular person. This shift will not be seen on the general shift list. It is only applicable to that day and that person.

To finalize the schedule and make it viewable by the employee, click the red light bulb and it will post it to the employees view.

To create a shift, go to the Preferences tab, select Shifts and select create a new shift. You complete the form by populating the shift details and submit the form:

You then associate the shift to the applicable employees:
