What does the red arrow mean?

NOTE: Red arrows only apply to shifts that have users attached, i.e.unpublished user shifts. 

When a user shift shows a red arrow:

• The shift is visible only to managers
• The shift is not visible in the staff app
• Staff have not been notified of the shift they are scheduled for

Unpublished shifts are considered draft shifts.

Once a shift is published:

• The red arrow disappears
• The shift becomes visible in the staff app
• Staff can view their assigned shifts and know when they are expected to work

Why This Is Important

The red arrow serves as a visual reminder that:

• A shift is not finalized
• Publishing is required before staff can see or act on the shift
• Managers can safely build and edit schedules before releasing them

Quick Tip

Before finalizing a schedule, scan for red arrows to ensure all intended shifts are published.
