Configuring Jobs: Schedule & Time Clock Tab in NX Restaurant Portal

The Schedule & Time Clock tab controls how employees assigned to a specific job interact with the time clock and related shift features in the POS. These settings help tailor time tracking, chit printing, tip declaration, shift reviews, and required shift tasks for the role.

Time Clock Options

These settings apply to employee clock-in/clock-out behavior:

Print chit at clock in

When enabled, a Time Card Chit prints when the employee clocks in. This can serve as a personal or manager-facing shift record.

Print chit at clock out

Prints a Time Card Chit at clock out, summarizing the shift worked.

Print signature line on time card chit

Adds a signature line to the time card chit, which can be used for verification or manager sign-off.

Declare tips at clock out

Prompts the employee to enter the amount of tips earned when clocking out.

💡 Useful for tipped positions like servers or bartenders.

Number of time card chits to print

Defines how many copies of the time card chit should be printed at clock out. Default is 1, but this can be increased for record-keeping or management needs.

Shift Review Options

These options allow employees to receive a summary of their shift details:

Print Shift Review on clock out chit

Includes the employee’s Shift Review on their printed time card chit.

Allow SMS of Shift Review

Enables the option for employees to send themselves a copy of the Shift Review via text.

Automatically SMS Shift Review

Sends the Shift Review via SMS automatically when the employee clocks out, without prompting.

🛠 Note: SMS functionality requires employee phone numbers and configured SMS services.

Breaks

The Breaks section allows you to define any required or allowed breaks for this job.

Click the + button to add a break configuration.

Assigned Shift Tasks

Use this section to assign default tasks to employees working this job.
