To schedule an open shift, you will first need to create a staff member named "Open Shift". This staff member will have the same access as your typical DSP and will need the HPC Location assignments within their "Relationships" group to include all of your active HPC Locations.
Once you've created the "Open Shift" placeholder staff member, proceed to the Scheduler screen and create your HPC Schedule event. Select the location and client that you'd normally select and select your new "Open Shift" staff member as the assigned staff. (We recommend including something in the title regarding the open shift and the location, so it's easy to find).
Once the shift is picked up, (meaning a real staff member is assigned to work it) select the event on the scheduler and adjust the staff member to the person who will actually be working the shift.
*Note: If you are creating a repeating schedule of open shifts, you only need to assign the real staff member to a single occurrence unless they plan on working every occurrence that was originally scheduled.
