⚒️Tools & Utilities

Punch clock, gift cards, loyalty balance, and countdown meter from the side navigation.

⏱️ Punch Clock

The Punch screen lets employees record their shift start and end times. Access it from the top bar shortcut or from the side nav menu.

Punch clock screen

The screen has two tabs:

Tab

Description

Punch Clock

Shows your last punch time and starts a new punch session with a live running clock.

Timesheet

View a history of all your punch-in and punch-out records for the pay period.

To punch in: the Punch in button activates when you are not currently clocked in. To punch out: press Punch out to end your shift. The duration timer runs in orange while you are clocked in.

For corrections to your recorded time, contact a manager — employees cannot edit punch records directly from the app.

🎁 Gift Card

The Gift Card screen (accessed via the side nav) lets you manage gift cards independently of a check — for example, to check a balance, load value onto a card, or activate a new card.

Gift card management screen
  1. Scan, swipe, or manually enter the gift card number using the keypad.

Action

Description

Activate

Activate a brand-new card that has not yet been enabled.

Load

Add a dollar amount to the card's balance. Enter the amount using the keypad and press Load.

Give

Issue a complimentary gift card amount.

To use a gift card as payment during checkout, see the Payment & Checkout article — the Gift Card payment method on the payment screen handles that flow.

⭐ Loyalty Balance

The Loyalty Balance screen lets you look up a customer's current loyalty point balance without starting or modifying an order. Enter or scan the customer's loyalty identifier to retrieve their account details and point total.

🔢 Countdown Meter

The Countdown meter lets managers set quantity limits for individual products, modifiers, and remarks. When a limit is reached, that item is no longer available for ordering on any workstation at this location until the count is reset or increased.

Countdown meter screen

The screen has three columns:

Column

Description

Products

Menu items with countdown quantities. Items showing a number have a limit set; ∞ means unlimited.

Modifiers

Modifier options with individual quantity limits.

Remarks

Remark options with individual quantity limits.

Countdown meter quantities are shared across all workstations connected to the same location — a change here is reflected immediately on all POS terminals.

On the order screen, products and modifiers eligible for countdown display the current remaining quantity as a badge on the item button. The badge decrements in real time as items are added to a cart. When the count reaches zero, the item can no longer be added to new orders.

If a staff member voids an item from a cart or removes it before checkout, the corresponding quantity is automatically returned to the count. The Countdown Meter always reflects what has actually been sold, not what has been added to carts in progress.

💡 To control which menu items are eligible for a countdown in the first place, see the Item Countdown Eligibility section of the Menu Configuration article in the back office guide.

📅 Reservations

The Reservations menu item appears in the side nav. This feature is Coming soon and is not yet active.
