FAQ
How does Schedule handle employee availability and time off?
Employees submit repeating availability (e.g., “I can’t work Tuesdays this semester”) and one-time off requests (e.g., “I need next Friday off for a wedding”) directly in the mobile app. Both require manager approval. Once approved, these requests appear directly on the schedule builder, and Schedule will warn managers if they try to schedule a conflicting shift.
Can Schedule help enforce our scheduling policies?
Yes, you can configure rules to block time-off requests on certain days, set limits on how many people can request a day off, and automatically warn managers about overtime and max weekly hour violations before they publish the schedule.
What is the difference between copying a staff schedule and using a template?
Copying a day or week duplicates the exact schedule, including the shifts and the specific people assigned to them. This is great for weeks that are nearly identical. A template saves the shifts without employee assignments. This is perfect for reusing your ideal shift structure while assigning it to different people each week.
Does Schedule include time clock functionality?
Yes, Schedule includes time clock functionality. Time clock software is a digital tool that allows employees to clock in and out of their shifts electronically, typically via a tablet, computer, or mobile app. It replaces manual timecards and spreadsheets, for an accurate, verifiable record of hours worked for payroll.
Does Schedule have team communication tools I can use to send messages to my team?
Yes, Schedule replaces inefficient methods like group texts, 1:1 emails, and paper notes with a centralized system for messages, announcements, and alerts. Easily share critical information with your teams via mass email and SMS messaging, ensuring company-wide alignment.
