FAQ

Quick answers before you dive in.

What scheduling features are included?+

The template includes shift planning with drag-and-drop, employee availability tracking, time-off request management, team calendar views, shift swapping, and labor cost tracking.

Can employees set their own availability?+

Yes. Team members can update their available hours, and the system flags conflicts when managers create schedules outside those windows.

How does time-off management work?+

Employees submit time-off requests through the app. Managers approve or deny with visibility into coverage impact. Approved time off auto-blocks those dates from scheduling.

Can I track labor costs while scheduling?+

Yes. The system calculates projected labor costs as you build the schedule, showing hours and costs per employee, department, or time period.

Does it work for multiple locations?+

Yes. Manage schedules across locations with location-specific shift templates, staff assignments, and calendar views.
