As a Scheduling Manager, go to your schedule page and assign your staff to jobs:

Click on the Unassigned Employees to pull up this screen:

Assign and Save Your Assignments

The Default Start and End time cushion for staff can be adjusted in Settings / Studio Details

Once the week is assigned, we suggest an email to your Photographers that looks something like this from the Scheduling Manager: -

To Download a staff listing for use in this email instructions are here - Download Employee List

When photographers then log in they click on the Actions / Confirm Assignments Link on their Profile Section:

That will bring up a list of their assignments for the week:

They can then Confirm All or Individually Confirm them.

As an admin then you go into the schedule, pick the week, click on Confirm Assignments and you will see all of the jobs and those that have been confirmed or not confirmed.

Staff WILL NOT receive notifications until their jobs are Confirmed. In most use cases the Scheduling Manager will find 50% of the field photographers confirm their assignments. As a rule the Manager will go in and Confirm all assignments 48 hours after sending the email. At that point confirmations will go automatically to Staff

Use the "Role Assignments" report to check how many staff you need on a specific date.
