Auto Assign Open Shifts is a Microsoft Teams Shifts feature that automatically fills unassigned (open) shifts for you. It lets managers automatically assign open shifts to available employees instead of doing it manually. The system considers factors like employee availability, approved time off, past scheduling patterns, and scheduling rules (e.g., max hours, rest time); and generates a draft schedule that you can review and adjust before publishing.
