The 'Events' section lists Manager Log Events within the Manager Log module. Here, Users can view, edit, and create Manager Log Events. Most federal holidays are automatically listed by default. 


Employee Reminders can be configured to populate Employee-related Events, such as birthdays and certification expirations, based on Custom Fields within the Employee Data Module.  

 

Manager Log Events will appear in the Labor Scheduling module in the Schedule Builder's daily informational window.

 

If the Event Management module is enabled, any confirmed Events will automatically populate as Manager Log Events.
