Create a schedule in three easy steps

Creating work schedules for your business can be a time-consuming task. Employees submit their availability and absence requests by email, which can leave you constantly switching between emails and spreadsheets in order to build your schedule.

Scheduling a shift

You can quickly and easily make a schedule for your team in the main menu of the Shiftbase under ‘Schedule’. On the left side, you will see the names of the employees and at the top, you will see the dates. When you navigate the cursor past the employees on the day you want to schedule a shift, a plus sign will appear. When you click on the plus sign a new pop-up will appear, where you can schedule the shift.

  • Scheduling based on availability and absences

  • Scheduling based on labor costs, budget, and expected revenue
