Troubleshooting - the Officer Name is not on the Drop Down Menu
If the Officer Name is not on the Drop Down Menu, it can be either one of two options:
The user has not been provided access to the site.
Go to Settings Users and search for the user. Click on the sites icon to view or add access to sites.
The user is not a security officer or a site manager role.
Go to Settings Users and search for the user to check what role is assigned.
Only security officers and site managers are set up to assign shifts by default. The Support Team must enable supervisors/Administrators roles, Dispatcher, Inspector, etc.
Please contact your Customer Success Manager or support@trackforce.com requesting to extend schedules to these roles.
