The roster turns over
every week. Rebuild it that fast.
A retail operator isn't scheduling once and adjusting. Across dozens of small locations with constant staff churn, the schedule gets rebuilt from close to close, week after week.
You're not staffing one store. You're staffing dozens, on a weekly clock.
Hourly staff turn over fast, so the schedule is never a finished document, it's a standing task. A scheduler needs one place to build next week's roster across every location: the Master Project View groups jobs by manager for the day, shows every location's open shifts side by side, and lets a scheduler drag an available employee straight onto a job card.
That roster is still being rearranged for most of the week, which is exactly why it stays a draft: a still-changing schedule should never reach the floor by accident, and a location shouldn't learn its coverage changed by finding out the hard way.
And every new hire who backfills a departure has to be registered, documented and trained fast enough to actually cover the shift they were hired for, not just added to a roster on paper.
Scheduling & Field Execution
Build the week in a drag-and-drop Master Project View, across every location.
Eight-status shift vocabulary
Draft, Punch In, No Show, Conflict and more, read the same way by everyone.
Onboarding & Training
Bilingual self-registration and a scored training gate for a workforce that turns over weekly.
One shift, one status, read the same way at every location.
A regional manager, a store scheduler and the worker on the floor can't be looking at three different pictures of the same shift. Every shift on the board carries one of eight statuses, and that vocabulary doesn't change from location to location or week to week.
Unscheduled and Not Punch In look similar from a distance, but they mean different things: one is an open shift nobody has been assigned to yet, the other is an assigned worker who hasn't punched in. Across dozens of small locations with a roster that turns over every week, that distinction is what tells HQ whether a location has a coverage gap or a no-show in progress.
Drafts don't leak to the field.
A weekly reschedule stays in Draft while a scheduler is still dragging people between job cards. Locations only see it once that scheduler takes the explicit publish step, so nobody shows up to a shift that was still being moved around an hour earlier. Publishing itself is a reviewable action, not a side effect of saving: it shows exactly which employees are about to be notified, and separately, exactly how many employees are still unassigned for the day.
Publishing is a distinct action from saving, by design: draft and live are never the same view, at any location.
A no-show requires a note, not just a tap.
Unassigning someone from a shift that has already passed doesn't just quietly clear the card. The system flags that the shift window has passed and requires a dispatcher to type why before confirming, so the record explains itself later without anyone having to remember the context, at a location the regional manager may not have visited that week.
The same mandatory-note discipline applies to Missed Punch and Conflict, so exceptions across every store stay explained, not just flagged.
Onboarded fast enough to actually cover the shift.
Backfilling a departure only works if the new hire is ready before the schedule needs them. A bilingual, self-led registration wizard and a scored training gate mean a store isn't stuck choosing between putting an unready worker on the floor or leaving a shift open.
A candidate self-registers through a bilingual wizard, in English or Spanish, entering their own details once instead of waiting on an admin to re-key a paper form.
A scored training course sits before activation: modules, a quiz, and a 75% pass mark a new hire has to clear before they're eligible for a shift.
Eight-status shift vocabulary
Draft, Unscheduled, Not Punch In, Punch In, Punch Out, No Show, Missed Punch and Conflict. The same statuses across every location, every week, so a shift's state never depends on who you ask.
75% training pass mark
A new hire clears a scored knowledge assessment before they're eligible for scheduling, whether they backfilled a departure this morning or were hired three weeks ago.
A weekly schedule your
locations can trust.
