Approve or reject a substitution
When a teacher accepts a substitution and your location does not auto-approve, a manager approves or rejects it before the class is reassigned. You do this in the Ferb Staff app.
You need the owner or manager role. Only managers see approval items.
Approve or reject
1. Open the Inbox in the Ferb Staff app.
2. Tap the Approval needed item for the class.
3. Review who accepted the class, then:
- Tap Approve shift to reassign the class to that teacher.
- Or open the ... menu, tap Reject shift, and confirm.
What happens
Approve reassigns the class to the accepting teacher, and the booked members are emailed that the class teacher changed.
Reject puts the class back on the open-shifts board for another teacher. The class is not cancelled.
Good to know
If your location has auto-approve substitutions turned on, accepted substitutions are reassigned automatically and do not appear for approval. See Configure substitution and staff-app settings.
