A rota in a spreadsheet, holidays in an inbox.
The rota lived in a spreadsheet only one person understood; holiday requests arrived by email and were approved from memory. Clashes surfaced on the morning they happened — two people off, the referrals inbox uncovered, and a manager reshuffling everyone's tasks by hand.
The brief: one place to plan the week — shifts, lunches, payrun days and every recurring task — request leave and approve it, with clashes caught before the rota is published, not after.
One-click weekly rota
Generate the week from a template or duplicate last week — tweak, lock and publish so everyone sees the same board.
Leave requests & one-click approvals
Requests show remaining allowance and who else is off — approve or decline in one click, with the answer logged.
Cover Needed view
Gaps flagged before publish — every under-covered shift and unassigned task surfaced in one click, with coverage health at a glance.
Tasks, payrun & lunches
Beyond shifts: referrals, keying and post-offer tasks assigned per day, with payrun duty and staggered lunches tracked on the same grid.
Holiday requests used to be a paper trail and a guess. Now it's two taps — and the rota just works.
