Challenge
Before

Each store built its shifts in Excel or on paper, and preferences and leave requests were gathered verbally or via notes. HQ had no overall view, and monthly shift creation and approval took significant effort.

  • Manage every store's shifts on one screen
    Excel/paper scattered per store
  • Collect shift preferences and leave requests digitally
    Gaps from paper/verbal handoff
  • Separate view/edit permissions by role and store
    Hard to manage information
  • Cut the monthly effort of creating and approving shifts
    High creation workload
Solution
After

From staff shift preferences and leave requests to manager creation and approval and HQ master-data and permission management — all unified on one platform. Master-data and permissions for HQ, shift creation and approval for managers, preference submission for staff: digitizing the work of all three roles.
