FAQ:

Q: Can I apply a repeating shift to more than one employee?

A: Yes, when you initially create a repeating shift you'll be able to select which employees it should be assigned to from the dropdown menu. Please know, you can't assign additional employees to an existing shift. Only during the initial creation of a shift can multiple employees be assigned.
