Can You Move a Volunteer to Cover Another Shift?

Moving the delivery driver to welcome may fill the desk and leave the supplies stranded. Before borrowing a volunteer, look at the work they would leave behind.

Proximatic puts the event's jobs, shift times and assignments on the same roster. You can see that the driver is already responsible for the 9–11 delivery run while you're looking at the welcome opening. Find cover checks who's already working at that time, so you can find someone to greet guests without leaving another job short.

The driver might still be the right person to move if someone else can take the delivery. Settle that second assignment first: an approved driver agrees to the run, and the original driver agrees to welcome. Update both jobs on the roster and tell both leads.

Now the entrance gets its helper and the supplies still arrive. If there is no second driver, leave the delivery commitment intact and use the open welcome shift to make a more targeted request. Seeing both jobs together makes that choice much easier to make before the day starts.

Create your event and see who's doing each job.
