Roster warnings are real-time alerts built into your scheduling system that highlight potential issues before the roster is published — like conflicts, double bookings, unavailable staff, or break rule violations. Instead of discovering errors after shifts begin or wages are calculated, managers receive visual cues (such as icons or coloured markers) directly on the roster screen.
These warnings function as a proactive safety net: when a shift is about to breach a rule — for example a staff member is scheduled for overlapping duties, lacks the required availability or is exceeding fatigue thresholds — the system flags the problem. Hovering over the warning reveals the exact issue, so managers can quickly adjust before publishing.
By using roster warnings, businesses reduce rostering errors, ensure compliance with labour regulations and improve shift coverage. The alerts help avoid costly mistakes such as paying for unintended overtime, rostering unqualified staff, or creating coverage gaps. Instead of relying on manual checks and spreadsheets, the system gives you built-in validation for smoother operations.
In short, roster warnings turn your roster from a static plan into an intelligent workflow that protects time, cost and compliance — helping you publish schedules confidently, keep staff schedules accurate, and avoid surprises come pay time.
