Your shift
Your shift is the Home that staff see when their role does not include Dashboard · View. It shows your name and role, the shift, one big button for your main job, your own orders and sales today, and what needs you. It shows nothing from the store's sales summary.
Owners and managers see Today instead. See Your Home screen.
Before you start
- A role without Dashboard · View, such as a cashier, server, crew member, kitchen staff or inventory clerk. This only happens with the Roles & Permissions add-on (included on Premium). Without it, every staff member has full access and sees Today.
Steps
Open Home
Open the app, or tap Home in the menu. A greeting at the top says "Hi" and your first name, with today's date in the store's time zone and your role.

Check the shift
With the Store Sessions add-on and Register Sessions · Modify, the greeting also shows who opened the shift, since when and the start cash. If none is open it reads No shift open with a hint to open one from Sell.

Tap the big button
Start selling shows when you can sell: register, order, booking, table, waiting list, shift or claim tag access. It never shows in a warehouse store. Kitchen staff who do not sell see Open kitchen display instead. With neither, there is no button, and up to four shortcuts you can open take its place.

Read Your day so far
If you take orders (Point of Sale · Modify), Your day so far shows Orders you took and Your sales for today. These are your own figures and need no report access. Nothing shows while it loads or if it fails.

Clear what Needs you
Needs you shows chips for new orders and orders ready for pick-up, plus booking requests and tables in use if you may open those. Tap a chip to open its list. A chip at zero is left out. Kitchen staff who do not take orders see how many orders the kitchen still has to make, and the chip opens the kitchen display.

What happens next
- Start selling opens the register, and the chips open their lists. Press back to return to Your shift.
Edge cases
- No sales dashboard here. One quiet line at the bottom says the store's sales dashboard is for owners and managers. Ask an owner for Dashboard · View if you need it.
- Your own figures only. Your day so far counts what you took, not the store's sales.
- Kitchen count. The kitchen chip counts open tickets that are pending or being prepared, once per order. It refreshes every 30 seconds while Home is open.
- Chips follow your access. Booking requests and tables in use appear only when you may open them.
