Before you start
You need a Scheduler or Administrator role. If you don't see the Post Shifts button, ask an admin to check your permissions — see How to Manage User Permissions.
Draft shifts appear with a strikethrough line on the schedule so you can spot what still needs to be posted.
Posting is tied to your current view (e.g., Day, Week, Month). The positions and date range you're looking at determine which shifts get posted — adjust your filters before you start if you only want to post for specific positions.
Post shifts
In the left sidebar, click Schedule.
Set your view to Day, Week, or Month and select the date range you want to post.
If you only want to post specific positions, apply your position filters now.
Click Post Shifts in the top right corner.
A window appears with two options — check one or both:
Assigned draft shifts — shifts already assigned to a specific staff member.
Open shifts — shifts with no assigned worker, available for staff to pick up.
Click Post.
Staff will see the posted shifts the next time they open the Veras app. Veras does not send a push notification when you post.
Note: If you want shifts to post automatically as soon as they're created, an admin can turn on Auto Post Shifts in your community's advanced settings on the Community Settings page.
Note: To undo a post, see How to Move Shifts to Draft.
Common questions
Q: What's the difference between assigned shifts and open shifts in the post window?
A: Assigned shifts are attached to a specific staff member. Open shifts have no assigned worker — posting them makes them visible in the Veras app so eligible staff can request them. You can post both types at the same time by checking both options.
Q: Will staff get a notification when I post?
A: No. Veras does not send a push notification when you post shifts. Staff see their new shifts the next time they open the Veras app.
Q: I posted the wrong shifts. How do I undo it?
A: Use How to Move Shifts to Draft to revert posted shifts back to drafts. Make your corrections, then post again.
Q: I posted the schedule but some shifts still show as a draft. Why?
A: Your position filters were likely active when you posted — only the positions you were viewing got included. Clear your filters and post again to catch the remaining shifts.
Q: What is Auto Post Shifts?
A: When Auto Post Shifts is turned on in your Community Settings, shifts are posted automatically as soon as they're created — they skip the draft state entirely. An admin can enable this in the community's advanced settings.
