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

Creating custom fields

  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
