Deleting Shifts for a Staff

When deleting shifts for a staff member, you can delete them in three ways.

Delete this Shift and All Future Shifts - this will delete any draft or published shift assigned to the staff starting from the current shift you are editing and into the future from that point forward.
Delete this Shift and All Future Draft Shifts - this will delete any draft shift assigned to the staff starting from the current shift you are editing and into the future from that point forward.
Delete this Shift - this will delete the current shift.

All three options can be actioned when you edit an existing draft or published shift. You can also Delete This Shift directly on the roster when working in the daily view of the roster.

Deleting Shift(s) from the Edit Shift Modal

1. Hover your mouse over the shift you want to delete (If deleting all future shifts, hover over the first shift) and select Edit Shift.

2. On the Update Shift Modal, select the Delete button to choose from the three options.

3. WARNING: Deleted shifts cannot be recovered. Once you select your choice, the shift(s) based on your selection in the previous step will be removed. The staff will be notified of the change if the shift is published.
