In Groups, open Ushers & Greeters Team from the Teams tab, click Members, then Add new. Search for Linda Brown and select her. She joins as a regular member. For someone who isn't in your directory yet, you can invite them by email right here. Click Add member, and her row appears. To lock in what she does, open her row menu and choose Assign Position. Pick Parking Attendant. From now on, scheduling suggests her for that position. It's marked as her primary position, so it's preferred first. Click Assign Position, and a green Parking Attendant chip shows on Linda's row, ready for the grid.
