  3. In the "Assign Employee" field, select "UNASSIGNED".

  4. Click "Create Shift" to save.

View Open Shifts

All open shifts will appear in the "Open Shifts" section.

Unassign an Existing Shift

To convert an assigned shift into an open shift:

  1. Click on the shift card to open the "Edit Shift" screen.
