Overview

Access from your: iOS device
Applies to: Admin/Managers, Supervisors and Schedulers

Future availability is a one-time availability set for a specific date in future. Future availability settings override your weekly availability on that specific date.

Important Point:

Once the future availability is saved, it will bring you back to the main screen on future availability where you will be able to view the status of your request.

Things to know before you begin:

  1. Your manager must enable 'Staff can set future availability' under the Settings module to give access to their employees for using the functionality.

  2. If availability change requests effective date is set by the management then all the changes made for a defined availability will only be effective accordingly.

  3. You cannot approve availability requests from the mobile app.

  4. If 'Availability must be approved by management' is enabled under the Settings module, you will have to wait for the management to approve your defined availability.

  5. Your manager must give access to the schedulers to approve availability by enabling 'Allow schedulers to approve availability' under the Settings module.
