02What can clinicians manage themselves?+

Clinicians can view their schedules and calendars, manage trades, submit time-off information, record personal events, set shift and availability preferences, and control profile and notification settings.

Administrators can use AI-backed Generator, Guided, Manual, or Draft workflows. They can define coverage requirements, create shifts and templates, review the full team calendar, and publish the schedule when it is ready.

Each feature on this page links to the corresponding ScheduleForward Help Center guide. The complete documentation library is available at app.scheduleforward.com/help.
