Request

PreviousSkillsNextAutopilot

Last updated 3 years ago

A request is an Employee's preference to either work or not work a particular day or a shift. Employees can place 5 types of requests by clicking on Request on the main menu:

  • Day On: Available all day

  • Day Off: Unavailable all day (post night ok)

  • Time Off: Unavailable time slot

  • Shift On: Prefer a specific shift

  • Shift Off: Specific shift Undesired

  • Paid Time Off: Request Paid Time Off

Requests can also be placed by the scheduler on behalf of the employee. The scheduler can do this in Autopilot > Roster > Requests.

If you see any of the 5 Request options grayed out, this either means that your site's scheduler has not toggled this specific request type on or you have not been added as an employee to the site. Contact your scheduler for assistance or reach out to our support team.
