Staff and rotas

Attendance & HR holds your staff list, your rota, and the hours people worked.

There is no payroll

SaleSprint does not pay anybody. There is no salary, no wage calculation, no payslip, no pay run and no bank file — I checked the whole product, and the only trace of payroll is an unused switch for a module that was never built.

So the section ends where most people expect it to begin. What it gives you is the inputs — who works for you, when they were rostered, how many hours were approved, and what commission they earned. What you do with those numbers is up to you and your accountant.

Plan around that before you set any of it up.

Which screen for which job

You need to	Go to
Keep a staff list	Employees

Pay a salesperson commission	Hours and commission

Two different things both called a “shift”

This trips people up constantly.

A workforce shift	A rota pattern — Morning, 8am to 4pm. Lives in Attendance & HR. About who is working when.
A cashier shift	A till session with an opening float and a closing count. Lives in Financials → Cash & Till. About money in a drawer.

They are separate records with separate screens, and nothing connects them. Being rostered on does not open a till, and opening a till does not mark you present.

See Banking and cash for the money side.

Plans

	Plan
Employees	Standard
Shift assignments, shift handovers	All plans
Shifts, attendance policies, timesheets, overtime, swap requests	Professional
Commission rules and records	Professional

Note that shift assignments are available on every plan but the shifts they refer to need Professional — so on a lower plan you can reach the rota screen with nothing to put on it.
