Schedules Settings Overview

Here’s an overview of these settings:

• Only with shifts: Send notifications only to employees who have been scheduled for shifts. When enabled, employees who don’t have shifts on a particular day won’t receive any notifications.
  
  
• Shift reminders: Employees will receive a mobile notification reminding them about their upcoming shifts. You can set this reminder to trigger a specific number of hours before the shift start time. The notification includes details about the shift, such as the time and location, along with any important events happening that day.
