You can write notes and store other information against a rostered shift using custom fields. Common examples of custom fields you can add to a rostered shift include:

  • Notes (that are shared with employees to provide more context to their shift)

Creating custom fields

Navigate to Settings > Platform > Customise native objects and select the object you want to create custom fields for. In this example, we'll choose Schedule.

Required information

  1. Set a name for the field

  2. Set the field type. In this example, we'll select 'Text.' To store longer messages, you can select 'Long Text.'

  3. Select permissions for who you want the field to be visible to, and who you want to be able to edit the field
