Use Available and Unavailable on your own schedule to tell your manager when you can work. These blocks help with planning; they do not change an existing shift or book time off.

Change your plans
Open your own availability block to change its dates or times. Use its actions menu to delete it when it no longer applies. If these actions are missing, ask your manager whether your role allows you to manage availability.Adding Unavailable does not cancel a shift you already have. Contact your manager about that
shift, or request a swap. For leave, request time
off.
