Get started for free

Reuse past schedules.

Adjust schedules without starting over.

Leverage your previous week's schedule as a base or copy it into future weeks so you don't rebuild from scratch every time
The algorithm factors in recent time-off and availability changes at the time you run it, helping your schedule reflect the most current data
The system alerts you to availability issues or potential overtime so you can make adjustments proactively before publishing

Maintain schedule consistency

Maintain patterns your team knows.

The system uses the roles assigned in employee profiles so only qualified team members are scheduled for each position
The algorithm takes into account each employee's maximum hours and helps you avoid overtime where possible, flagging potential issues before you publish
Keeping similar patterns week to week means fewer surprises for your team and less time explaining schedule changes

‍

Edit published schedules.

Change anything, anytime.

Just click any shift and edit it—times, assigned person, role, whatever needs changing with full control from start to finish
If some shifts are still unfilled, you can move them to the Open Shifts row before publishing so your team can claim those shifts in the app and you approve the claims
Made edits after publishing? Republish the schedule and your team gets updated with the changes immediately

“We used to have to input everything manually but now it’s all automatic and we can spend our time on more important items. We love that Homebase is committed to continuous improvement just as we are.”
