Lock Shifts

Lock Shifts

Lock Shifts is a feature that allows you to lock shifts prior to and on a certain date. This means that nothing about those shifts can be edited. To learn about using this function, follow the instructions below.


1. Navigate to the Scheduling Dashboard through the quicklink on the main menu or through Menu>Scheduling>Scheduling Dashboard.
2. Open the Utility Drawer and select the Lock Shifts option.
 

3. Select the date for which you want all prior shifts to be locked and unchangeable. Click save to complete. 


4. Admins and schedulers will then see a lock on any shifts that are prior to the date selected. This means those days are not able to changed or edited. 


5. To unlock shifts, follow the same steps but put a date in the past. Remember it locks shifts prior to the date you enter.
