Live Labor Report

The Live Labor report provides real-time information on labor costs so that owners and managers can manage their labor better. It offers real-time insights based on your Front of House and Back of House staff, specific job roles, and even individual employees. Managers will have access to this report at any time in order to directly compare employee payroll with the sales of the restaurant and make decisions accordingly.

 

Here is how to use the Live Labor Report. 

 

Tap the menu icon in the bottom left corner of the screen, and select Functions.
