Bid on Unfilled Shifts

When your manager posts an unfilled shift for bidding, you can bid to pick up the shift in Work > Calendar. Dayforce marks days containing available unfilled shifts with the shifts available for pickup icon ().

For some unfilled shifts, you must place your bid within a specific period (a bid window). Dayforce marks these unfilled shifts with the date that the bid window closes:
