Features Shifts

Who's working, at a glance.

Plan staff shifts on the calendar everyone already checks — assign members or whole teams, see which shifts still need people, and let your team hand shifts off without a group chat.

A week of shifts in the Alpacca calendar, showing who is on each one, a shift somebody has asked to be covered, another only part filled, and one still open.
What's included

Scheduling and coverage on one calendar.

Schedule people, not spreadsheets

Create a shift like you'd create any event, and put real people on it — individual members or a whole team at once. Everyone's shifts live beside the rest of the group's calendar.

  • Assign members or whole teams
  • Say how many people each shift needs
  • Recurring shifts for weekly rotations
  • Everyone gets notified when they're scheduled

See gaps before they hurt

A shift that's short of people is flagged on the calendar and in the day's list, so uncovered hours stand out while there's still time to fix them.

  • Open and part-filled shifts flagged in the list
  • Coverage visible right on the month view
  • Filter down to just the shifts still needing people
  • Changes and cancellations notify the people affected

Your week, or the whole roster

Members see their own shifts by default. Leaders flip one filter to see every shift — or one person's whole week — without leaving the calendar.

  • My Shifts and All Shifts calendar lenses
  • Target hours per person, checked as you assign
  • Filter by member for a one-person roster
  • Shifts appear in synced personal calendars too

Hand-offs

Shifts change hands without the group chat.

Someone can't make their shift? They put it up from the shift itself. Anyone qualified sees it going spare and can take it — and when a swap needs a manager's sign-off, it waits for one before anything moves.

  • Give away a shift you're on, with a note
  • Pick up an open slot or someone else's shift
  • Only members with the right qualification can take it
  • Approve or deny hand-overs before they take effect
