Streamline hiring and offboarding with Dialpad WFM’s. Just set an agent’s start or end date, and Dialpad WFM takes care of the rest, automatically adjusting their schedule, updating team visibility, and managing system access.
Let's dive into the details.
Who can use this
Dialpad WFM is available to all Dialpad users.
Contact your Customer Success Manager to discuss adding Dialpad WFM to your plan.
Understanding start and end dates
When a start or end date is added to an agent’s profile, any days outside these dates will be inactive.
This means:
You won’t be able to manually add shifts or activities for these dates.
Shift and activity plans won’t apply to inactive dates.
If the agent’s turn in a Round Robin rotation falls in their inactive period, that shift won’t be scheduled.
Access to Dialpad WFM is restricted outside these dates.
This lets you plan ahead and add an agent to a shift or activity plan at a time that suits you, rather than having to rush and make edits on their first or last day.

You’ll be informed that the agent will lose access and prompted to remove any shifts scheduled after their end date. Both draft and published shifts will be cleared and won’t count toward coverage.
If you select Not right now, any shifts (draft or published) will remain, but they will not count towards coverage. When the agent is removed on their last day, their shifts will be removed.
Tip
You’ll find a tag next to an agent’s name displaying their start or end date.
