Positions

The Positions screen allows users to define the different job positions for employees and associate these positions with General Ledger accounts. Positions are then linked to an employee record in Net-Chef. This screen also allows users to manage relationships between positions and stations.  (See "Stations" for more details).  {Franchise Note}: Only franchisors will be allowed to define positions, so they can be used in Staffing Level Templates across all franchise entities.

 

 

1. Under the Labor menu, click Positions.  {Concepts Note}: If a Position is linked to one or more Concepts, it will only be visible in this screen if the current user is linked to one or more of the same Concepts. If a Position is not linked to any Concepts, it will be visible to all users. See "Concepts" for more information.
2. If necessary, use the Funnel (Filters) icon to filter the list of tasks to view "Active", "Inactive", or "All".
3. Click the Plus (Add) icon to create a new position, or click on the appropriate row to modify an existing one.
4. Enter the Code and Position name.
5. Select a General Ledger Description from the drop-down to associate with "Regular" hours for this position.
6. Select a General Ledger Description (Overtime) from the drop-down to associate with "Overtime" hours for this position. If not selected, all hours will be applied to the "Regular" GL account selected in the previous step.
7. Check the Subject to Tips box if a person in this position receives tips. If this box is checked, tip information will be required for that position in the Labor Detail screen in Net-Chef.
8. Check the Manager box (column hidden by default) if this is a management roll that should be excluded from certain labor calculations, such as Labor $, Ideal and Earned Hours.  {Note}: This flag was added to support future functionality, as noted here; it is not functional yet.
9. Enter values for Min Pay Rate, Max Pay Rate, and Default Pay Rate. (optional)
10. The Active box is checked by default; clear this check box if the position should not be active.
11. Click Link Stations to associate one or more stations with the position.
12. When finished, click the Disk (Save) icon.
13. To download and print these entries, click the Printer (Export) icon and select the desired options.

 

If necessary, you can click on a new row and click the Trash Can (Delete) icon to remove it.

 

Note: The "Default Pay Rate" for a position appears as the default value in the "Rate" field when a position is selected on the Positions tab in the Net-Chef Employee Maintenance screen. Any value entered in the "Rate" field must be ≥ the "Min Pay Rate" and ≤ the "Max Pay Rate" entered in this screen.
