# Change of Shift Request

> Request a change to your scheduled shift or rest day for one or more dates in a schedule period, with a reason and your signature.

A Change of Shift request asks to change your scheduled shift, or to make a date a rest day, for one or more dates in a schedule period. After you submit it, the request follows the configured approval workflow before being approved, rejected, or returned for revision.

## Create a Change of Shift Request

### Prerequisites

Before submitting a Change of Shift request:

* You must have an active employee account.
* The schedule for the selected period must already be sent. If it has not been sent, a message is displayed and you must select another period.
