Multiple Locations or Departments -
Two options - use one WhenToWork account or separate accounts (linked for billing purposes).

IF ANY EMPLOYEE WORKS AT MORE THAN ONE LOCATION OR DEPARTMENT your locations should all be included in one WhenToWork account. This way employees will never be double-booked across locations.

Locations or departments are added into an account by making location-specific Positions and then you can Group the Positions for quick viewing of each location.

Ex. Create Position names like: Cashier - Dept A, Cashier - Dept B,  or Dept A Sales, Dept B Sales 

You then have the flexibility of viewing any combination of these Positions (all workers at one store or all Cashiers across all locations etc.) Optional - You also can set each employee's Position Preferences to indicate what Locations you prefer they work or allow employees to choose their preferred positions

Note: When locations are included in one account they must be Published at the same time. Publishing affects all positions and locations. To Publish locations separately use separate WhenToWork accounts if appropriate (see below). Also if you put all locations in one account we currently do not have a way to restrict managers to only edit or view certain positions or employees.

We do not normally recommend having more that 200 employees in one account as it may make some of the displays hard to read. Please contact us for more information if you plan to have more than 200 employees in one account. 
 

IF NO EMPLOYEE WORKS AT MORE THAN ONE LOCATION OR DEPARTMENT and the department/locations are handled separately you can create a linked WhenToWork accounts (linked only for billing purposes so you make one payment for your combined total of employees across accounts). This allows you to create and publish totally separate schedules at different times.

You also may request an "Administrative Account" so that you can view and run reports across multiple linked accounts. There is no extra charge for this added service.
