You can add a staff meal to a shift or to an hour entry. There are two locations where these meal allowances can be created.
1. You can do it while creating a new shift or hour entry. In the window you find 'Meal allowance', then click the '+Meal' button.
2. Or set it up in the venue settings. Go to the menu in the top right corner > Venue settings > Time registration > Meal allowance.
We have added some standard allowances (breakfast, lunch, diner). Activate (or deactivate) an allowance by using the toggle. You can change the name of an existing allowance, or add a new one at the bottom of the window.
💡 Tip: Some customers use the meal allowances for other kinds of allowances. For example, you can add a travel allowance. You can name these allowances however you want.
You can select each (activated) meal in the planning and time registration in a shift or hour entry. If you use Eitje's clocking system, team members can also indicate if they had a meal, when clocking out.
⚠️ Note: You cannot link a monetary value to an allowance. You can only indicate if a shift included a meal/allowance. In an exported file, you can see the amount of allowances, but no monetary value.
