Build and publish the week
The page has a Week grid (one column per day, color-coded by employee, with an add button on each day) and a List view. The flow is:Add shifts as drafts
Add shifts for the week. Each shift has an employee, date, start and end times, a type, and optional notes. While you’re building, shifts are drafts.
Review the draft week
Drafts are your private working copy. They show a dashed DRAFT badge. They do not appear on the calendar, do not sync to Google Calendar, and aren’t shown to the rest of the team.
Shift types and statuses
- Types: work, Time off (req) (a time-off request), and Time off (approved time off).
- Statuses: draft, published, and cancelled.
Weekly templates
If your week looks similar most of the time, save it as a template instead of rebuilding it. From the Scheduling page header, open Templates:- Build a named pattern of day-of-week + employee + start/end time rows.
- Apply the template to any week to generate that week’s shifts as drafts in one click, then publish them.
- Edit or delete a template any time. Rows without an assigned employee are skipped when you apply it.
