Use 7shifts With Toast
Save time scheduling, effectively manage your labor costs, and streamline workforce communication from anywhere by combining the power of Toast and 7shifts for seamless integration.
7shifts pulls Toast's order data to populate their sales forecasting reports: When you link Toast POS with 7shifts, you can use 7shifts sales forecasting to build more labor-accurate schedules, helping you hit your labor targets and keep costs under control.
Projected sales: When creating future schedules, 7shifts automatically uses historical sales data to generate sales projections within the Labor Budget tool. This feature enables more accurate scheduling, helping you stay within budget and achieve your labor targets.
Actual sales: Actual (net) sales data for the current and future days will initially be empty until sales data is received. Once the sales numbers are synced from the POS, they will appear under the corresponding days within 7shifts.
7shifts pulls Toast clock-in and clock-out information: With your 7shifts and Toast integration, you can view your employee's time clocking entries from Toast Web within 7shifts. In addition, you can export this time clocking data to any of Toast's payroll integrations.
7shifts sends employee shift data to Toast for clock-in enforcement: With Punch Enforce, employees cannot clock in significantly before or after scheduled shifts without manager approval. Restaurants can set a grace period for this within Toast. See Customize Time Clock Options for more information.
Employees created in Toast can be mapped to existing 7shifts employees: Automatically create a new employee in 7shifts when you add them to your Toast POS system. Streamline your employee onboarding process by eliminating the need to enter employee information twice.
