Adding a Shift (Internal or Non‑support)

Overview

Use Shift when you want something on a worker’s roster without directly billing a Participant. Handy for admin time, meetings, training, office duties, or other internal tasks. It shows on the roster and timesheets, but it does not create Participant charges.
