Steps differ for General businesses.

Staff and attendance keeps one record for each person who works for you: their contract and pay basics, when they are due at work and whether they came, their leave, the salary advances they owe and the commission they earned. Till shifts count as attendance, and people clock in as themselves at a till or on their phone. It is what Payroll pays from.

  • Part of the set-up for Food & drink service and Education.
  • Can be added by Shop, Wholesale & distribution, Stay, Appointments, Fitness & memberships, Jobs & repair, Professional services, Health care, Production, Logistics & field and General.

  • Customers and services › Staff: “Records, attendance, leave, advances and payroll inputs. Personal and pay details are shown only to those allowed.” Its tabs are Staff, Attendance, Leave, Advances, Commissions and pay and Settings.
  • My time: where each person clocks in, asks for leave and sees their advances, once they have a staff record.
  • On from the start for Food & drink service and Education.
  • Other businesses: the owner switches it on under Administration › Business profile, when the plan has it.

Restaurants and schools have it as soon as their plan does; every other kind of business switches it on under Administration › Business profile. Switching on Payroll brings it too. See Switch a module on.

For General businesses

A General business switches it on in one step: on Business profile, under What your business does, switch on Staff and payroll, which also switches on Payroll. See Add what your business does.
