If shifts or schedules are not visible to employees in SameSystem, it is important to first identify the potential reasons. These could range from contract settings, job title mismatches, or unpublished schedules. Another common reason is improper assignment in Employee view, where shifts added in Zone view are not correctly tied to the employee. Employees should report such visibility issues to their store manager for resolution, such as publishing the schedule if it hasn't already been done.
For leaders - why the employees' schedule is not published, and how to publish Additionally, ensure shifts are assigned in Employee view rather than Zone view to avoid visibility issues.
When a new employee starts, after the schedule is already published, the schedule needs to be published for that one employee individually. To ensure visibility, always assign shifts in Employee view, as this ties the shift directly to the employee.

I cannot see coworkers' past shifts!
If you can only see your own past shifts and not those of other employees, this is due to your role-based permissions. Limited schedule access only grants visibility to your own shifts. Contact your admin or HQ to have your permissions reviewed if you need broader access.
Schedule view is showing too many or too few days
If your schedule view has changed (for example, showing two weeks instead of one), you can adjust it using the view controls in the schedule. Options include a 3-day view or other available intervals. You can also try adjusting your browser zoom level to fit more or fewer days on screen.
