What this means for your team
A working-day example
A restaurant manager plans the evening team. Staff can see their shifts; the manager reviews differences after service.
Plan the team, workplace, shift times and expected breaks.
Review availability and publish the rota.
Staff record work using the business's configured clocking rules.
Review actual times, breaks and any correction requests before approving hours.
Illustrative workflow using synthetic examples.
Bring shifts and the details people need into the same view.
A late finish should stay a late finish. Rota times do not overwrite actual clockings.
Use the supported working and location settings for your team, rather than assuming everyone works the same pattern.
Useful answers
Staff can view their published shifts and relevant changes. Who can publish, review or change a rota depends on the business's permissions and scope.
The rota is the plan. Actual work records and reviewed corrections remain the evidence for hours; planned times do not replace recorded times.
No. Where location verification is configured, location is used for the clock-in decision. StaffSail does not continuously track staff.
