Your First Handover

A handover is the record of your shift that the next team reads. In Handover you start a shift, add notes as you go, then end the shift and submit. The first time you open Handover, a short welcome guide may walk through the same four steps.

1. Start the shift. Choose Start Shift in the sidebar. Pick your site and your team (or No Team if you do not have one), then choose Start Shift. There is no separate clock-in. If your organisation checks that you are at the site, Lede may ask to use your location once, at that moment.
2. Read what the last shift left. Open Incoming Handover Notes to see what the previous shift handed over. When you are ready, choose Start Your Handover.
3. Add notes as you go. In Outgoing Handover Notes, type a note and choose Add Note, or choose Record Brain Dump and speak your notes. Each note is marked Urgent, Flag or Note.
4. End the shift and submit. Choose End Shift. Lede shows Review Your Handover, where you can check your notes. Then choose End Shift & Submit Handover.

Good To Know

• Site Induction in the menu has the key information for your site. Check it any time.
• Your shift stays open until you end it, and your notes stay with it. If you forget to submit, come back and choose End Shift.
• If you started a shift by mistake, choose Abandon Shift, the small link at the bottom of the shift page. Lede asks you to confirm because it discards the shift and its notes and cannot be undone.
