After you receive the notification of a shift getting dropped by your employee, the shift is still your responsibility to assign it to another staff member and re-publish it.
Things to know before you begin:
A scheduler can only view the shifts for its assigned position under 'scheduler permission.'
A scheduler cannot assign users from other positions.
You will receive a notification via SMS or Email when an employee drops a shift.
The dropped shift will appear under 'Schedule Overview' as ‘Empty Shifts’ in ‘Employee View’ or ‘No Employees’ in ‘Position View' as shown below:
