  6. Contact your Customer Success Manger or GoTab chat support to finalize your 7shifts setup.
  7. If you'd like to enable clock in/out directly from your GoTab POS with our new direct 7shifts API, please verify that all user roles match roles in 7shifts and are assigned in both GoTab and 7shifts. 
  8. Once the user roles match and are added accordingly, please provide the following information.
      1. Do you declare tips on clock out?
      2. Called "grace period", how long before a shift can a user clock in without a manager? (0, 5, 10, 15, 30 or 60 minutes or no constraint)
      3. Called "late tolerance", how long after a shift is supposed to end does a user have to clock out?  (0, 5, 10, 15, 30 or 60 minutes or no constraint)
      4. Do you allow employees to clock-in when not scheduled?
  9. With this information, GoTab will finalize set your schedule for labor to 7shifts, finalize your settings and you're good to go.

Notes:

-You can change any of above settings for tips declaration etc. after the initial setup by GoTab from the Labor page in your GoTab Manager Dashboard.

-If you want to use 7punches (7shifts clock in app) but do not wish to set the GoTab direct access step above, you may still manually clock in directly through the 7punches app. 

-Clocking in/out must be same via the same method within a given shift. Whether an employee clocks in with the direct 7shifts API or 7punches, they must clock out via the same method.
