How to Add and Manage Your Staff

How to Add and Manage Your Staff


This guide will walk you through adding staff members and managing their roles, shifts, and reports using your POS system.

Step 1: Adding Staff to the POS System

  1. Navigate to Settings:

    • On your POS system, select Settings from the navigation bar.
    • Choose Features from the settings menu.
    • Input the PIN that was provided with your POS system to access the features.
  2. Select the Staff Option:

    • In the Features menu, find and select the Staff option on the right-hand side.
    • This will automatically open a new record to add a new staff member.
  3. Assign a Role:

    • Choose the staff role from the options at the top: Basic Staff, Manager, or Admin.
    • For example, to add a cook, select Basic Staff, enter their name, and press the green checkmark.
  4. Set a PIN for Clocking In/Out:

    • The system generates a default PIN for the new staff member to use for clocking in and out.
    • You can either use the default PIN or create a custom PIN by clicking the field and entering a new number that’s easier for the staff to remember.
  5. Add Additional Details:

    • Input the staff member’s mobile phone number to enable login via phone.
    • Enable the Login option to allow them to access the system.
    • Once the staff member is added, their name will appear on the left-hand side.

Step 2: Managing Staff Through the ClockInMaster App

  1. Access the ClockInMaster App:

    • From the navigation bar, click Apps to return to the default app screen.
    • Select the ClockInMaster app.
  2. Log in with Your Phone Number:

    • Input the phone number associated with your account, then press the green checkmark and hit continue.
    • A six-digit code will be sent to your phone, which you’ll need to enter to log in.
  3. Clock In and Out:

    • Staff members can use the Home screen to clock in and out by entering their PIN on the ClockInMaster app.
    • After entering their PIN, they can also start a break or clock out by selecting the appropriate options.
  4. Admin Features:

    • As an admin, you can manage other tabs such as Reports and Staff Management.
    • To access these, input your admin PIN.
    • The Reports page allows you to view shift records, and you can filter by dates or use the calendar icon to view specific time ranges.
    • You can also email reports directly from the system by entering the recipient’s email address.

Step 3: Editing and Updating Shifts

  1. Adjusting Shift Records:

    • If a staff member clocked in early, clocked out late, or forgot to clock in, you can edit their shift details.
    • Use the Edit Shift feature to adjust the time manually by selecting the shift record and updating the clock-in or clock-out time.
  2. Adding a New Record:

    • You can also add a new shift record if needed by selecting the Add New Record option.

Step 4: Updating Staff Details and Hourly Wages

  1. Update Staff Records:

    • In the Staff Management app, click the Staff icon at the top.
    • Enter your PIN to view existing staff members.
    • From here, you can update staff details, including their role or PIN.
  2. Adding Hourly Wages:

    • Unlike in the POS system, the Staff Management app allows you to add hourly wages.
    • Input the staff member’s wage (e.g., $10/hour), hit the checkmark, and then select Update.
  3. Adding More Staff:

    • To add more employees, repeat the process of entering their name, assigning a PIN, adding their phone number, and specifying their hourly wage if applicable.

Step 5: Scheduling Reports and Additional Settings

  1. Schedule Reports:

    • You can set up automated email reports by selecting Email Scheduled Reports.
    • Input your PIN, choose the frequency (daily, weekly, or monthly), and specify the time you want the report to be sent.
  2. Additional Time Settings:

    • You can enable a 24-hour time format if preferred, or stick to the 12-hour format.

By following these steps, you can easily add staff, manage their shifts, and ensure accurate time tracking through your POS system and the Staff Management app.
