ONLINE WORK SCHEDULING
Get the right employees in the right shifts at the right time - every time.
Don’t waste another minute creating employee schedules by hand or in Excel. Our online shift scheduler makes managing work schedules fast and easy, so owners and managers can focus on the bigger picture.
Employee Schedule Templates
Orbital Shift's templates make scheduling recurring or seasonal shifts easier than ever. Simply drag and drop pre-made shift templates onto the calendar, and your work schedule will be done in minutes.
Month, Week & Day View
View your schedule your way. See an entire month’s shifts at a glance, or look more closely at the schedule by week or day.
Filters
Too much information at once can be overwhelming. That’s why we created filters to simplify organizing the work schedule app. Sort by location, department, position, event type, or time period to view your needed data.
Custom Tags
Add a tag to a shift or event to help organize your schedule even further. Tags help staff see if they have a meeting, training, or another special event attached to a shift.
Drag & Drop
Tweak the schedule in seconds with the drag-and-drop feature. Click the event you want to move and drag it to the desired spot on the schedule. Our shift scheduling software will do the rest.
Hover Text
Sometimes you need to get the details - fast. Simply hover over an event card or employee name to view the hidden information.
WORK SCHEDULE MAKER
Take the guesswork out of scheduling. No more missed shift. No more excuses.
Spend less time creating staff schedules and more time on the floor with customers. Eliminate scheduling conflicts and missed shifts. Let our staff scheduling software take care of the tedious tasks for you.
Available & Qualified Staff
Our online employee scheduling software automatically filters out unavailable or unqualified employees when filling an open shift. Managers can rest easy knowing everyone who’s on the clock is qualified for that position.
Know Who's Working
Managers can see who’s on the clock with one quick glance at the online scheduler. Never be in the dark about who’s working where and when.
Online
Job Board
Give some of the scheduling power back to your employees with the help of the online job board. Managers can post open shifts for employees to pick and choose based on their own preferences.
Instant Staff Communication
Getting in touch with employees is easy with automatic messaging. Managers can send messages to specific departments, positions, or employees so everyone knows what’s expected.
Automatic Conflict Alerts
Our workforce management software will catch potential scheduling conflicts before they happen, so managers can always stay under budget with the right number of staff for each shift.
Find Replacements Fast
Last-minute scheduling conflicts are a reality for every business, but our employee scheduling software takes the stress out of filling shifts. All available and qualified employees receive automatic notifications about open shifts, so managers don’t have to make endless phone calls to staff.
Shadow
Scheduling
Some employees might be cross-trained to work multiple positions and locations. Our shift scheduling software tracks shadow scheduling so employees are never scheduled at the same time in two different places.
Reviews & Approvals
Stay on top of time off and cover requests from anywhere. Approve or deny requests individually or in groups for fast time and attendance management.
ONLINE STAFF SCHEDULING
Improving employee engagement is easy when you put the work schedule app at your employees’ fingertips.
Say goodbye to scheduling confusion, no-shows, and over or under-staffed shifts. Give your employees the power to take charge of their own time and work management by putting the schedule in their pockets.
Time-Off
Requests
Employees can submit time-off or vacation requests with our new, mobile scheduling apps. Empower your staff to take charge of their schedules without ever having to deal with another lost sticky note or missed phone call.
Cover & Swap
Requests
Getting shift covers is easier than ever with the employee mobile apps. Employees can submit a cover or swap request with a few taps, and all available and qualified employees will be automatically notified of the open shift.
24/7
Access
Employees don’t have to call into work to find out when their next shift is. With the employee mobile apps, staff can access their work info from anywhere.
Automatic Event Notifications
Employees receive automatic event notifications to verify shift covers, so everyone is always in the know, no matter what.
