Bidding on shifts

When your bid window opens, you’ll receive a notification with the schedule bidding details. You can place bids only during your assigned window.

  1. Select Maintenance > Optional Modules > Schedule Bidding > Employee Schedule Bids.
    If access is configured, you can also open this page by selecting Schedule Bidding from the menu in the Self Service Portal.
  2. Select the schedule bid to bid on.
  3. For each shift, perform one of these actions:
    • In concurrent or sequential/concurrent mode, specify a value ranking the shift pattern in the Rank field. Valid values are 1-9999. The lowest number is the highest ranking. The ranking numbers are not compared to another employee’s ranking number; only the ranking order is compared. For example, if your lowest number is 10 and another employee’s lowest number is 5, the two shifts are compared equally because they have the highest ranking.
    • In sequential mode, select the shift from the Select list.
  4. Click Submit.
  5. Click Save to review your selections before the bid window expires and finalizes your selections.
