Manager Approval for Shift Trades in Zendesk

Learn about the manager approval process for shift trades in Zendesk.

How does manager approval work for shift trades in Zendesk?

Manager approval is a crucial step in the shift trade process in Zendesk. Once an agent accepts a shift trade, the request is sent to a manager for approval. Managers have the authority to accept, deny, or react with a comment to the shift trade request.

Agents involved in the trade will receive an email notification with the manager's decision. This ensures that all shift trades are properly vetted and approved by management before they become official. This step helps maintain order and fairness in the scheduling process.
