Organise your team from one place with all the labour management tools you need.

Time Tracking

Keep track of your team’s time.

Time clock (POS and Mobile)

Your team can clock in with a personal passcode at the register through the Square Team App if they’re away from the POS, which can be enforced with geofencing. This way, you can always precisely track hours worked based on their physical presence.

Timecards

Automatically generate timecards once a team member clocks in. You can add notes or edit timecards at any time.

Scheduling

Create a rota in minutes.

Shift scheduling and publishing

Track your team’s availability, assign upcoming shifts, and ensure everyone on the team knows when and where they are working with notifications in the Square Team app and via email.

Review shifts

View all planned shifts by week to assign a job or a team member. A shift can be viewed weekly or daily to make changes.

Rota duplication

Duplicate shifts from week to week to simplify creating rotas.

Open shift scheduling

Publish open shifts for available team members to claim. Your team can also swap shifts with other team members.
