Positions
The Positions screen allows authorized Net-Chef users to link stations to positions and assign employees to positions based on priority. This will facilitate more robust labor scheduling by allowing managers to schedule employees to work at specific stations within a location and, if necessary, to auto-schedule employees to work in specific positions based on their assigned priority, and preferred availability as defined in their employee record.
- From the Labor menu, click Positions.
- Click Link Stations for the appropriate position to associate it with one or more stations.
- If necessary, click the Add (blue Plus) button to display the Available Stations section in the lower part of the screen. This will open automatically if the position is not linked to any stations.
- Click on the appropriate station or press [CTRL] and click on multiple stations.
- Click the Link Stations [^] button to link the selected stations or click the Link All Stations button to link them all to the position. If necessary, select one or more stations and click the Delete (Trash Can) button at the upper right of the screen to remove them.
- When finished, click the X (Close) icon in the Available Stations section to close it, then click the X (Close) icon at the upper right of the screen to return to the list of Stations.
- Click the Priority link for the appropriate position to assign a priority ranking for employees to be scheduled in this position.
- In the Priority column, enter a value to indicate the priority level of each employee (1 = highest). This will allow the user to rank employees at the location for scheduling purposes. Users can enter numbers with up to 2 decimal places, which will enable them to slot people into an existing sequence.
- When finished, click the X (Close) icon at the upper right of the screen to return to the list of Stations.
