Employee shift posting in the Self Service Portal

You post shifts to the billboard from the Schedule Hub page in the Self Service Portal. You can withdraw shift posts to remove them from the billboard.

Shift posts must pass the required validations and approvals before the shift is made available for other employees to claim or bid on. Posted shifts remain in the posting employee's schedule until the shift is taken by another employee.

When a posting or claiming request requires approval, a message is sent to the user who is responsible for approving or rejecting the request. This user can access this message in the Self Service Portal and can approve or reject the request directly in the message.

This functionality is available on the Schedule Detail page for the Shift Billboard:
