View and manage shift conflicts

Shifts schedule assistance will alert managers when a conflict occurs while creating a shift schedule, or approving one. 

Here’s the conflicts managers will get alerts about: 

  • Overlapping shift conflict: This is when two or more shifts are assigned to the same person and they overlap with each other.

  • Time off conflict: This is when a shift has been assigned to an employee at a time when they have approved time off.

  • Availability conflict: This is when a shift has been assigned to an employee at a time that doesn’t match the availability the employee entered.

Managers can filter the schedule to see all conflicts by selecting Filter > Shift conflicts

Conflict alerts appear on the schedule calendar page as well as under Requests, where a manager will be alerted if a shift request would result in a conflict. Conflict alerts are on by default, but can be turned off by de-selecting the setting under View > Shift conflicts
