        Clean up Job Roles

        In the Scheduling system, employees appear under each job role they are assigned.

        • If an employee has multiple job roles, they will appear multiple times on the schedule—once for each role.

          • For example, an employee with four job roles will appear in four separate job role sections on the schedule.

        This is a good opportunity to review and clean up job roles before syncing.

        • If an employee no longer works a specific job role, remove it from their profile.

        • This helps keep the schedule clean and prevents employees from appearing in job role sections they no longer work.
