How to Post an Open Shift Swap
If you can't work a shift and don't have a specific person to swap with:
- Go to My Shifts (Sidebar → My Shifts)
- Find the shift you want to give up
- Right-click the shift → select Request Swap
- In the swap modal, select Open Swap
- Optionally set an expiration date/time (the swap is automatically cancelled if no one takes it by then)
- Add a message (optional) and submit
What happens next:
- Your shift appears on other staff members' Shift Deck → My Deck under "Available Swaps"
- The system automatically filters to show only eligible staff (same craft group, required scopes, not on leave)
- Interested colleagues click Take This Shift
- If your organisation has swap auto-approve on and that person passes the checks, they take the shift immediately. You are notified. You do not choose them again
- If the checks fail, the offer waits for a roster builder. The shift stays open, so a later colleague who does pass can still take it
