HD Sports Zone Bookmark 25L-8 — Production Navigation Smoke Test / Slim Workflow Verification

Read-only smoke test for the slim manager and employee scheduling workflow. This verifies that production navigation, manager links, employee links, and admin diagnostics are still reachable without changing schedules, auth, middleware, permissions, notifications, payroll, Time Clock rules, POS shifts, reservations, payments, waivers, customer profiles, exports, PDFs, CSVs, schedule locking, or hard schedule blocking.

Production Smoke Test Production Home Manager Flow Employee Portal 25L Completion
Builder Help Strip

Manager build workflow: Build → Review → Publish → Employee View

Quick links are consolidated here so managers do not have to hunt through the larger navigation. This strip is visual only. It does not change saves, publishing, schedule rows, employee views, notifications, locking, payroll, Time Clock, POS, reservations, payments, waivers, or customer profiles.

1. Build Use existing builder.
2. Draft Draft until published.
3. Review Check conflicts.
4. Publish Existing publish flow.
5. Employees Published self-view.
Manager Schedule Builder — Safe Workflow

Build here. Review conflicts before publishing. Employees view only published schedules.

Use this screen for the existing manager build workflow. Before publishing, review unavailable blocks and soft conflicts. After publishing, employees should use the Employee Portal, My Schedule, Weekly Schedule, or Print Weekly.

Phase 25P-1 only adds clarity and support links. It does not change draft saves, publishing, schedule locking, employee text/email notifications, payroll, Time Clock, POS shifts, reservations, payments, waivers, or customer profiles.

1. Build Use the current builder workflow.
2. Review Check unavailable blocks and soft conflicts.
3. Publish Publish only after manager review.
4. Employee View Employees use published self-view pages.
Draft Status / Publish Readiness

Treat this as draft work until the manager intentionally publishes it.

Before publishing, confirm the date range, employee coverage, shift times, and soft conflicts. Once published, employees should use the Employee Portal and self-view pages for their final schedule.

Phase 25P-2 adds labels and readiness guidance only. It does not change save buttons, publish buttons, schedule rows, draft data, published data, employee visibility, notifications, locking, payroll, Time Clock, POS shifts, reservations, payments, waivers, or customer profiles.

Draft Build and review shifts here.
Coverage Confirm staff, roles, dates, and times.
Conflict Review Review soft conflicts before publish.
Published Employees use published self-view pages.
Publish Review Reminder

Review soft conflicts before publishing this schedule.

Before the manager publishes, check unavailable blocks, appointments, manager holds, duplicate shift issues, and any soft conflicts. Conflicts are still review warnings only; this does not hard-block scheduling.

Phase 25P-3 adds this publish-review callout only. It does not change save buttons, publish buttons, draft rows, published rows, employee visibility, schedule locking, employee text/email notifications, payroll, Time Clock, POS shifts, reservations, payments, waivers, or customer profiles.

Unavailable Review unavailable blocks.
Appointments Check appointment overlap.
Manager Holds Review manager holds.
Coverage Check staff coverage.
Publish Publish after review.
Employee View Reminder

Employees should view published schedules only from Employee Portal.

After the manager publishes, employees should use Employee Portal, My Schedule, Weekly Schedule, or Print Weekly. Managers should avoid sending employees to builder, diagnostics, route catalogs, checklists, or developer tools.

Phase 25P-4 adds this reminder only. It does not change publish behavior, employee schedule data, employee permissions, schedule locking, employee text/email notifications, payroll, Time Clock, POS shifts, reservations, payments, waivers, or customer profiles.

Workflow Expectations

Workflow Expected Smoke Test Result
Manager Daily Workflow Create / Edit Schedule → Review Conflicts → Publish Schedule → View Published Schedule → Print if needed. The production navigation separates this from diagnostics.
Employee Daily Workflow Employee Portal → My Schedule → Weekly View → Print My Schedule if needed. The employee workflow is intentionally small.
Admin / Diagnostics Access Prep, Mapping Audit, Access Preview, Guard Design, Smoke Tests, and Completion pages are behind Admin / Diagnostics. Diagnostics remain reachable by direct URL and through the collapsible section.
Future Access Control Employee-only access is still not enforced in this phase. No middleware/auth/permission changes are introduced.

Next Recommended Phase

25L-9 — Production Navigation Completion / Access Prep Closeout
Recommended next phase should close out the slim navigation/access-prep section and prepare the next implementation module.
  1. Keep it read-only.
  2. Summarize the 25L access-prep and navigation-slimdown phases.
  3. Confirm daily manager and employee workflows are simple.
  4. Keep diagnostics available but not front-and-center.
  5. Do not enforce employee access yet unless the next module explicitly begins controlled implementation.
  6. Do not change auth, middleware, permissions, schedules, payroll, Time Clock, POS shifts, reservations, payments, waivers, customer profiles, exports, or locking.
