When's the Enable Group Order option available and how does it affect workforce schedule managers and workers?

It's available when publishing schedules only if the corresponding schedule generation profile has worker groups defined.

Here's how it affects schedule managers:

• • Define and view group order settings during schedule publication. Also view publication details, including who gets access first and when others can claim.
  • When you republish schedules that were unpublished, group order is reset and you need to review and update the settings as appropriate.

Here's how it affects workers:

• • Workers see and request shifts only during their specified access window. Outside of that window, open shifts won’t appear on their calendar.
  • Notifications are clear and timely, helping workers act when eligible.
