Cancel a shift

Scheduler:open6 steps

Cancelling keeps the shift and records why it did not happen, which is what the cancellation policy needs. It is not the same as deleting: a cancelled shift may still be charged to the participant and still paid to the worker, and that is usually correct.

Step by step

  1. 1

    Open the shift.

  2. 2

    Click Cancel Shift.

    Cancel a shift, step 2
  3. 3

    Pick the cancellation policy. It decides whether the participant is still charged and whether the worker is still paid — short notice usually means both.

  4. 4

    Pick a reason, and add a note if the reason needs explaining.

  5. 5

    Confirm. The card now shows CANCELLED and stays on the board.

  6. 6

    The shift still appears in reports and, depending on the policy, still reaches the invoice and the pay run.
