Stock Watch and Shift Notes

Check what's running low and read the manager's notes for the shift, right on the sign-in screen.

Two notepads sit beside the PIN pad on the sign-in screen. You can read both without signing in. Glance at them before every shift.

Stock Watch

Stock Watch lists every menu item your managers are counting, with how many are left.

The same numbers show on the menu buttons while you take an order. A small orange number in the corner of an item button is how many are left. An item that's out turns dark gray, and you can't ring it in.

Shift Notes

Shift Notes shows the notes your managers have posted for the staff, like specials, large parties or reminders. The name under each note is who wrote it.

Notes just for you

A manager can also leave a note for one person. Those don't go on the notepad. They pop up when that person signs in, as Note from (name). Tap Dismiss once the countdown finishes. See Sign in with your PIN.

On the handheld

The handheld's sign-in screen has the same two lists. Scroll down under the PIN pad. See Using the handheld.
