Using self-scheduling

You can use self-scheduling to gain control over your schedule by selecting which shifts you would like to work. You can add shifts to your schedule when a self-scheduling process is open. The shifts you can select are controlled by the available shifts offered for self-scheduling, your job and skill qualifications, and the scheduling rules set up by your organization. Shifts are added to your schedule once you submit your list of selected shifts. When a self-scheduling process closes, you are expected work your selected shifts, and you can no longer update your schedule by adding or removing shifts from the process to your schedule.

Workmail messages are sent to inform you when self-scheduling processes open and close. These messages include the date and time of self-scheduling windows and other details provided by your system administrator.

The link in self-scheduling Workmail messages can be used to directly open the self-scheduling process in the Employee Transaction Manager (ETM).
