What to Do About Duplicate Volunteer Signup Responses

Let people sign up for their chosen shifts in Proximatic. See their jobs together and check for overlapping times, rather than guessing what repeat form replies mean.

Two form responses from one volunteer can mean two very different things: they want a second job, or they're correcting the first answer. Counting both as extra people makes the crew look bigger than it is.

Confirm what that person meant before carrying the commitments into your event. Then give volunteers one signup they can return to instead of asking them to submit the whole form again whenever something changes.

In Proximatic, people choose the open shifts they want and receive a confirmation for those jobs. Someone taking setup from 8–9 and welcome from 9–11 can select both. Proximatic checks that the shifts don't overlap and puts the person on the roster for both jobs.

Their receipt provides a way to view and manage the signup. If they need to release a place, that change returns it to the event; a fresh form response isn't your cancellation process.
