Manage Volunteers on a Schedule as a Leader

Add, approve, and remove volunteers from a schedule as a team leader.

Permissions Required

Only available to team leaders who have the Manage team schedules permission.

A team leader with the proper permissions can manage volunteers on a schedule. From the schedule's Assignments page, you can add or remove volunteers and view who has already responded to the requests.

Volunteers with a green check mark next to their name have accepted or were manually accepted. Volunteers with names crossed out have declined or were marked as declined.
