Mobile - Manager functionality

Updated by Leigh Hutchens

There is no separate manager’s app, but as a manager, you log in to the same app and have more functionality. Under the Manager tab, you can manage shift bookings and absence requests. In the Schedule view, you can also add, remove and change shifts in the schedule.

Manager tab

Shift booking requests

The shift booking requests that you see in the manager tab is following the new notification logic described here.

  1. Select the Manager menu.
  2. Click Shift bookings to see details of the desired shift booking. An exclamation mark indicates you will contravene the employee’s contract by giving them this shift. 
  3. You can see which regulations are breached if the shift booking is approved.
  4. You can write a comment (free text) and select Reject or Approve.

After you have managed a shift booking, it disappears from the view.

With release 3.11, we no longer support shift swap approvals in the Manager tab in the mobile app. Go to web.quinyx.com Schedule > Notifications to approve shift swap requests. You can also approve shift swap requests from web.quinyx.com on your smart phone.

Select the Time trackers icon in the top right corner to see how many holiday days the employees have left before you approve a holiday request. This is assuming your organization uses this functionality.
