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:
To bid for an unfilled shift:
- Go to Work > Calendar.
- Select the day containing the unfilled shift that you want to bid on and click Shift Bidding.
- In the Unfilled shifts slide-out panel, select the Request Shift checkbox next to the shift that you want to bid on.
- Click Submit.
Dayforce sends the request to your manager for approval. When they respond to your bid, you receive a notification that lets you know if it was approved or rejected.
