In addition to general settings, department settings are the go-to place for creating sections and enabling swap and drop shift permissions for employees.

From Lighthouse Business Manager, click on Workforce -> Scheduler.

Represented with a cog icon, department settings are found in the top right corner of the schedule (next to the Publish button).

Note: You must be assigned as a manager to the selected department to access this feature.

Under General Settings, you can:

Enable the ability for your employees to swap and/or drop shifts unless they have been added to the ‘exclusion’ list (in which case they do not have permission to do either).

Create and manage your company sections where appropriate. Sections are areas within your department.
