Open shifts and pickup requests

Publish open shifts, let staff claim them, and approve pickups.

Updated 2026-09-18

Typical flow

  1. Create a shift with no staff assigned and publish it
  2. Eligible staff see “open shifts available” (in-app / push / email per prefs)
  3. Staff request pickup
  4. Managers approve or decline — the winner gets the shift

Still unassigned the day before

Rostrix can alert managers when a published open shift is still unassigned the day before it starts — so you can fill it or open it for pickup in time.
