What's Changing?

Preventing managers from making schedule edits from the Roster on the mobile app when Regular Schedules are enabled for a client. Employees must either have a regular schedule for the scheduling week OR be excluded from having a regular schedule in order to be placed on a work schedule.

Reason for the Change

New York City’s Fast-Food ordinance does not include salaried employees. These changes give managers the ability to properly manage those individuals' schedules while enforcing the requirements that employees have a regular schedule.

Customers Affected

This feature is intended for customers adhering to New York City’s Fast-Food ordinance for regular schedules.
