Job Manager: Streamline Employee Role Management | OrderCounter

Job Manager

Jobs are a way of categorizing employees and contain a list of privileges that can be used to control what the employee has access to.


This way if you have 10 servers you do not have to set the privileges up for those employees individually. You would create a Job called “Server” , then assign that job to each employee. When the employee clocks into the till with the “Server” job code then they will get the privileges assigned to that job code. You can override one or more privileges at the employee level if needed.

An employee must be clocked in for the job privileges to apply.

Consider setting “Clocked Out – General Access” to “No” for each employee

Jobs can be managed in Job Manager in the Back Office > Employees



Creating a New Job

Click on "Add New Job" 





















Job Title – What you want to call the job. Server, Manager etc.
Job Description – A notes box for any extra info you wish to record. It is only viewable in this location
Terminal Access – If set to “No” then anyone clocked on using this job code will not be able to log on to the till.
This would be useful for any staff that need to keep track of their hours but do not use the till. Kitchen staff for example
Job Category – You can assign the Job to a category if you wish.
These categories will be shown in the Labor Tracking Report and the Labor Report 
Choose Table Section – If both are set to “On” then when an employee clocks in they will be asked what section they want to be assigned to.
Used in conjunction with Back Office > Settings > POS > Assign Sections. 
Claimed Tips –  If both are set to “Yes” then when an employee clocks out they will be prompted to enter their tip total for the day.  The amount they entered will be visible in the Claimed tips report.

Used in conjunction with Back Office > Settings > POS> Claim Tips
Quick Sign In – If both are enabled then every employee that is clocked in (with Quick Sign In enabled) will show in a list on the login screen. You can select the name to sign in as that person
Used in conjunction with Terminal Settings > Quick Sign In.
