To delete a shift on WhenToWork, follow these detailed steps:

1. Log into Your WhenToWork Account

Start by logging into your WhenToWork account with your administrator credentials. Ensure you have the necessary permissions to delete shifts.

2. Navigate to the Scheduler

Once logged in, go to the Scheduler section where you can view the current schedules.

4. Delete a Single Shift

Hover over the shift you wish to delete. Click the More button (usually represented by three dots or a similar icon) associated with that shift. From the dropdown menu, select

Delete. 

If you want to notify the assigned employee about the deletion, check the option to Notify <user> and include a message if desired. This notification option is available only if the shift has not yet occurred.
