Guided walkthrough

Getting started for managers

The four screens a manager lives in, and what each one is for.

Step 1 of 5

Your day at a glance

Home shows who is on, who is late, and what is waiting on you. It is the one screen worth checking when you walk in.

This walkthrough explains the steps. Moving through it does not change your business or mark work as completed. Links to Orbit open in a new tab and may require sign-in.

Where requests land
Leave, shift swaps and availability changes all arrive in one place, so there is a single list to work through rather than four.

The rest lives in Learn
Rostering, timesheets and everything else have their own short guides. They are in Learn whenever you want one.
