Can my employees see the Shifts tool in their Sesame app?
Yes, as long as you enable it in Configuration.
To enable the Shifts module for employees, go to Configuration >> Schedules >> Shifts >> General and turn on "Show the Shifts module". Once enabled, employees can access Shifts from the Sesame app.
Within this feature, you'll find two viewing options:
- My calendar: shows only the shifts assigned to the employee.
- My team: also shows the rest of the team’s shifts.
Note: to let employees see their coworkers’ shifts, enable "Show coworkers’ shifts to employees".
In addition, there are two ways of displaying the Shifts tool in the app. At the top-right of the screen, employees can choose their preferred view: Calendar or List.
