Once you have described your application, click on the “Send Message” button. Pabbly Studio will start designing your application based on the provided details. This process is automated, saving you significant time.

After your application is set up, you can begin managing schedules. In Rosterfy, the dashboard provides a quick overview of employee shifts, unfilled slots, and any pending swap requests. This overview simplifies the scheduling process.
Utilize the employee directory to keep track of staff availability and roles. Each employee’s record can include contact details, job role, and weekly availability. This information is crucial for effective staff management.
Additionally, Rosterfy allows you to track leave requests and shift swaps. Each request can be marked as pending, accepted, or rejected, ensuring clarity in scheduling.
