Overview
Access from your: Android device
Applies to: Employees
If you're unable to work one of your shifts, you can trade the shift (swap shifts) with one of your coworkers.
Things to know before you begin:
‘Employees can trade shifts' must be enabled under the ‘Settings’ module to give access to trading shifts by your admin/manager.
If the approval settings are enabled by the management, then the manager’s approval is must required for shift trade, which may delay how quickly a shift is offered to your coworkers.
It is up to the manager to approve or reject the request.
When you create a trade, the shift is still your responsibility until it is picked up by one of your coworkers.
The scenario outlined in this tutorial consists of the following building blocks:
