Group Events

The Group Events option in the Time Off / Event Calendar allows you to schedule events and have those events then populate on select employee's calendars, along with the CrewScheduler. This is useful, for example, if you want to place an event on an entire shift's employee personal calendars.

To add or edit a Group Event, click 'Manage Group Events' while in the Time Off / Event Calendar.

To add an Event, simply click the + Add event button. 

The pop-up window will allow you to choose the title of the event, the employees, groups, or lists the event should propagate to, a start and end date and time, a recurrence option, and description.

Group events will populate on the right side of the CrewScheduler, just above the Employees Off and Misc. boxes. 

On personal day planners, group events will populate like so:
