The request must be accepted by a manager who has permission to approve shift swaps. After approval, the two people's shift assignments are swapped automatically.

Note: You cannot swap a shift that already has attendance data or belongs to a locked period.

Register your work schedule

When the company opens a registration round, the Schedule registration menu (My space group) shows the open round and its deadline.

  1. For each day you want to work, turn on the switch and choose Existing shift, Custom hours (pick start – end time) or Available all day (the manager may assign any shift).
  2. To work 2 slots in a day (e.g. morning and evening), click Add 2nd slot. At most 2 slots, and they must not overlap.
  3. Click Submit. Until the round closes you can still edit and Update your registration; days the manager has approved stay unchanged.

Approved days get a shift assignment, which you see in Check-in / Check-out like a normal shift.
