What are unassigned shifts

An unassigned shift is a roster shift that isn't currently assigned to an employee. Unassigned shifts can exist on a roster template, as well as a published or unpublished roster.

Why is this important

On occasion shifts may need to be taken from a user and redistributed. The unassigned section of the rosters allow users to put all of the unassigned shifts into a single area and then reallocate these shifts.
