Schedule Express Process to move someone to AWC

Answer 34

There is no list of AWCs that I'm aware of. But don't Create Overtime on the Supervisor spot (unless you already know it's being filled with an in-class supervisor). You instead go to the person you are going to AWC and: Right click on their line -> Change Users Hours -> Coverage tab -> Select the hour block on the top-right -> Assign Role for Supervisor. This process will move them into AWC/Supervisor role, then you can Create Overtime on their spot.
