## What {{ app_name }} does

{{ app_name }} is a shift-management platform for businesses with shift workers — restaurants, retail, healthcare, hospitality. Managers plan shifts on a calendar, publish them to staff, then track attendance, leave, and payroll on the same data.

The product covers:

- **Scheduling** — calendar, recurring shifts, schedule templates.
- **Coverage** — hour-by-hour staffing grid with eligibility checks.
- **Availability** — workers submit when they can and can't work; managers see overlap.
- **Time tracking** — clock-in / clock-out, attendance flags, manager approval.
- **Leave** — policies, balances, requests, EFZG-style spell tracking.
- **Compliance** — work-rule overtime tiers, break rules, country / state holidays.
- **Reports & payroll** — twelve reports with CSV / XLSX / PDF exports.

## Who uses what

- **Owner / Admin** — sets up the company (locations, positions, rules, holidays, employment types), manages billing
- **Manager** — plans the schedule, approves time and leave, runs reports.
- **Shift worker** — sees their own schedule, submits availability, requests time off, sees their earnings.

You'll see callouts in articles that flag manager- or admin-only steps.
