Detailed answer

Schedulers are management users focused on operations. They can work with schedules, timesheets, employee records, client and site context, reports, onboarding, and their own account settings.

Schedulers can approve, reject, reopen, and close missed clock-outs through the timesheet review workflow. That matters for operational teams where supervisors or coordinators review attendance before payroll preparation.

Payroll document management, organization settings, billing, client management, and site management are admin-only.

Example

A scheduler creates shifts for the week, reviews attendance exceptions, and approves submitted timesheets after checking the records. An admin still controls organization settings, billing, payroll document uploads, and higher-level account configuration.

How BetterDesks helps

BetterDesks gives schedulers the operational tools they need without giving them every admin capability. Site-scoped scheduler access and employee open-shift pickup are not available today.
