Team, scheduling, and approvals

Team is the manager workspace for workforce operations. Sensitive compensation and payroll readiness remain restricted even when a manager can approve time.

Sign in to open team

An authorized account is required to use this workspace.

People and jobs

A team member can be an employee or contractor and can have effective-dated job assignments. Employment status changes require a reason and preserve prior history.

Invite and configure a person

  1. 1

    Create or invite the person

    Use the correct worker type, email, start date, and access role. Only the owner can create or materially change access grants.

  2. 2

    Add an effective job

    Assign the title, classification, location, and start date that apply to the work.

  3. 3

    Complete sensitive setup

    Authorized payroll roles add compensation, pay components, leave rules, and provider onboarding status without storing full SSNs or bank details locally.

Publish assigned shifts

  1. 1

    Review availability

    Use the employee’s submitted weekly windows and unavailable dates.

  2. 2

    Create the assigned shift

    Select the member, effective job, local date, start/end time, and break expectations.

  3. 3

    Publish

    Published shifts appear in Workforce and trigger the configured notification.

Current scheduling scope

Scheduling supports assigned published shifts and availability checks. It is not a drag-and-drop open-shift marketplace.

Approve time and leave

  • Review exceptions and the original clock-event history.
  • An approved correction appends replacement history and reopens the timecard when required.
  • Confirm breaks, overtime context, and workweek boundaries before approval.
  • Apply the effective-dated leave policy and available balance to leave decisions.
  • Approved timecards can be locked to a payroll preparation and should not be altered outside correction workflow.

Compensation, pay components, and policies

Hourly/salary rates, overtime classification, bonuses, commissions, benefits, deductions, garnishments, and leave rules are effective-dated. Add a new version when terms change; do not rewrite the terms that supported a past payroll.

I-9 status

I-9 verification and document handling occur outside this application. Follow your organization’s authorized employment-eligibility process.

Still unsure?

Pause before posting, approving, refunding, or moving money. Ask the owner or the role responsible for that workflow to review the source record with you.
