Using Shifts App to coordinate volunteer schedules - Am I crazy?
TimLB I haven't tried this, but I also have a similar need. Can't you already do something like this with Shifts "as-is" by using the "Open Shift" feature, rather than using a non-user account? When you create an open shift, one of the fields to enter is "Slots" which allows you to tell how many open slots there are that need to be filled. I haven't thought it through thoroughly so perhaps I'm missing something in your use case that this wouldn't handle.

Ah, yes - that's what I was missing! I was demoing the function for a user and wasn't seeing the add open shift for some reason. Now to start documenting.
Edit: I know what I did... I changed my self on a shift to be a member and that effectively removed all my permissions to manage the Shifts app for that Team (and removed my ownership in that Team as well).
