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.

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.

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.

Open Soft Conflicts Publish Checklist Draft Labels Employee View
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.

Next Recommended Module

25J-2 — Final Schedule Publish Dry Run Print Packet
Recommended next safe phase should add a browser-print packet for the no-write dry run so managers can review the simulated published rows before a real publish/copy action exists.
  1. Add browser-print dry-run packet for selected draft period.
  2. Include simulated published period row, simulated shift rows, blockers, warnings, day summary, employee summary, and duplicate risks.
  3. Keep it browser-print only with no PDF/CSV file generation.
  4. Do not insert, update, delete, text, export, lock, publish, or integrate with payroll/Time Clock/POS.
