Create Staff Types

  • Last Updated: June 23, 2024
  • Compatible Version: All Versions

Staff Types describe employee roles within your business. For example: Manager, Cashier, Delivery, Maintenance.

  • Tip! Apply a different staff type to each profile you create for an employee who has different roles within your organization. For example, Sam Jones works some shifts as a cashier and some shifts as a delivery person. Sam has two different employee profiles, one with the staff type “Cashier,” and one with the staff type “Delivery.” Sam logs in with the “Cashier” profile when he starts a cashier shift; he logs in with the “Delivery” profile when he starts a delivery shift.

  • Note: Staff Type is relevant to the Bank Manager feature. Only staff members with “Manager” status can manage a bank (aka cash drawer). Be sure to assign “Staff Type: Manager” to employees who will manage a bank. For information on the Bank Manager see: How to Use the Bank Manager. For information on assigning a manager to a bank see: Create a Bank
