How do I add a team member? (Mobile)

Modified on Tue, 28 Nov 2023 at 12:14 PM

We think it's fair to say that adding team members is one of the more important functions in Shiftie; you could try to get by without them but we're not certain that you'd get very far. Luckily it's nice and straightforward to do and in no time you'll be able to add employees without a user guide, a stiff drink, and a packet of biscuits to support you*. 


  1. Head over to the team page by clicking on the 'More' button at the bottom of your screen and choosing 'Team' from the menu.
  2. Click the plus button in the bottom right of the screen.
  3. Fill out the employee's details.
    1. The 'Permissions' field controls the level of system access the employee will have. If you're not sure which is best then take a look at our full guide to the different permissions.
    2. If you have more than one location set up you can choose which the employee should be assigned to.
    3. Select the schedules you want the employee to show on.
    4. 'Default job role' is the employee's usual job role. If the employee has more than one job role you can add those later
  4. If you've entered an email address for the employee you'll be able to choose whether you want to invite the employee immediately or if you'd rather do so at your leisure.
  5. Once you're happy with all the fields click the Add button at the bottom of the screen. The employee will be added and ready to start assigning shifts to.



*Okay, we lied about the biscuits; they'll always be essential.
