Availability - Ability to approve/be notified of staff availability requests

18 votes

It would be great if there was an approval process for staff availability updates. So if staff update their standard or availability blocks it comes through to the management team to approve, same as shift swaps.

Need the ability to notify managers when staff availability changes. A staff member can change their standard or unscheduled availability after a roster has been published without the manager knowing unless they are actively looking at staff availability. RosterElf generates a notification for staff leave requests. Would be great if managers were kept in the loop when availability changes when it affects a published or saved roster.

Thanks for your suggestion. I will merge this into another feature request similar to yours that was recently posted.

Merging the requests will combine the votes to push the ranking further up the feature request board.
