Swapping shifts

You can swap shifts between two employees in Central Staffing. You can also swap between an employee's currently assigned shift and an unassigned shift.

  1. Load a schedule.
  2. Right-click the shift card for the first shift that you want to swap and select Mark for Swap.
    The selected shift card is highlighted with a dotted line border.
    Note: To unselect a shift that is selected for a swap, right-click the shift card and select Unmark for Swap.
  3. Right-click the shift card for the shift that you want to swap with the selected shift and select Swap.
    The Swap Shift pop-up opens and displays the shifts that are being swapped. The pop-up displays any schedule compliance warnings or errors that swapping the shifts would cause.
  4. Perform one of these options:
    • If no warnings or errors are found, click Submit to swap the shifts or click Close to cancel.
    • If only warnings are found, click Submit to confirm the warnings and swap the shifts or click Close to cancel.
    • If any errors are found, the shifts cannot be swapped. Click Close to cancel.
When the shift swap is submitted, the selected shifts are swapped between the assigned employees. If one of the shifts is unassigned, the employee is assigned to the unassigned shift, and their currently assigned shift becomes unassigned.
