Employees can request to trade shifts or have someone cover for them.

The Process

  2. Acceptance: Employee B accepts the request in the app.
  3. Approval: YOU (The Manager) receive a final approval request.

How to Approve

  1. Navigate to Schedule > Requests.
  2. Review the "Swap Request".
    • Check Overtime: The system will warn you if this swap pushes Employee B into overtime.
  3. Click Approve to finalize. The schedule updates automatically.
