Flag 7shifts overtime before it happens

How do I catch 7shifts overtime before it's worked?
WebRun checks 7shifts every morning for employees on track to hit overtime this week. It totals scheduled hours against your labor budget, emails the location manager a list of who is approaching the line, and logs the week's labor cost to Airtable, so overtime gets caught before it's worked, not after payroll.
- Overtime gets flagged before the shift is worked, not at payroll
- Labor cost tracked weekly against budget without a manual export
- Managers get one focused email instead of monitoring 7shifts all day

Questions, answered
Does WebRun change the schedule?
No. It only flags risk and reports it. Editing or reassigning a shift always stays a manual step for the manager inside 7shifts.
How is overtime risk calculated?
It totals each employee's scheduled hours for the week so far and flags anyone on track to cross 40 hours before the week ends.
Does it look at actual clocked hours too?
It reads the published schedule each morning. Once shifts are worked and clocked, the next run reflects the updated totals from 7shifts.
