The easiest way to prevent staffing hiccups in your upcoming day is the shift monitor. You can set your team up with pre-shift text messages in a customizable time before they are expected to be at work.
This is what the Shift Monitor looks like on the Dashboard:
You can see who is pending confirmation (and may be still in bed) or who is confirmed and on their way to work.
You set the timing for text messages to go out in the Notification Settings found in the Schedule tab under Planner and Settings button. We recommend a 90 minute initial text, followed by a 30 minute text if no response has been received.
