Using a Sling schedule primarily involves organizing and managing employee work times. A fundamental way to use the scheduling feature is by creating shifts directly through the Sling app.
Scheduling a Shift in the Sling App
To effectively use the Sling schedule by adding work periods for your team, follow these steps within the mobile application:
- Navigate to the Shifts tab within the Sling app. This is where you can view and manage existing shifts.
- To initiate the creation of a new shift, you have two options:
- Tap the options button (3 dots) located at the top right of the screen.
- Alternatively, you can tap directly on a specific date listed on the left side of the screen. Both actions will bring up the options menu.
- In the pop-up menu that appears after tapping the options button or a date, select Create shift.
- You will then be directed to a new screen where you can enter all the necessary shift details. This typically includes information such as the start and end times, assigned employee, location, task, and any relevant notes.
By following these steps, you can quickly add new work periods to your Sling schedule, keeping your team organized and informed about their upcoming shifts.
