Schedule settings (admins)

Open Settings → Schedule.

Layout

• First day of week — where the week grid starts.
• Default schedule view — Day, Week or Month on open.
• Schedule day start / Schedule day end — the earliest and latest hour the day view shows (24-hour). A venue trading past midnight needs this widened or shifts fall off the edge.
• Default shift length — pre-filled when creating a new shift.

Money on screen

• Show employee wages on schedule — managers and admins see estimated wage cost per shift.

Clocking

• Clock-in window — how early employees can clock in before their shift starts.

What employees can do

• Allow open shifts — employees can pick up unassigned shifts.
• Require shift confirmation — employees must confirm scheduled shifts before they're locked in.
• Restrict shift exchanges by location — employees can only swap or pick up shifts matching their own location and position.
• Employee schedule visibility — how much of the schedule employees can see.
• Show coworker names in shift details — employees can see who else is on the same shift.

Safety

• Clopening warning threshold — warn when an employee has fewer than this many hours between a closing and an opening shift. Set 0 to disable.

Practices

• Leave the clopening threshold on. It is the only automatic guard against the rota pattern that burns people out fastest.
• Require shift confirmation turns publishing into a two-way handshake. Useful for casual staff; friction for a fixed team.
• Narrow Employee schedule visibility rather than restricting Manager roles when the concern is privacy — it is the setting built for that question.
