How and where do I configure the setup for my schedules (Labor Scheduling Maintenance)?
This article shows users how to set up and manage the Labor Scheduler, but it does not show users how to build and post employee schedules.
Overview
Users with Change permissions to the Labor Scheduling Maintenance page can create multiple schedules to use when creating employee schedules with the Labor Scheduler and determine if roles are service or non-service. For example, stores can have a separate schedule for managers than their employees. Employees can be broken into schedules such as front-of-house, back-of-house, server, hosts, bar, etc.
Service roles are typically those that have direct customer interactions, such as servers, hostesses, bartenders, etc. Non-service roles are those that typically do not have direct customer interactions, such as custodians, dishwashers, cooks, etc.
Before proceeding with the setup, please ensure your Employee Roster is up-to-date and that POS Admin has Job Codes properly configured for Manager Labor Types.
