How to Set Up Scheduling in Biznsbook

Configure positions, locations, shift templates, overtime rules, and GL accounts before your first roster.

Step 1. Open Labour Scheduling → Setup → Settings and set break rules, daily and weekly overtime thresholds, minimum rest between shifts, and feature toggles.
Step 2. Create positions with default hourly rates, minimum staffing levels, and optional covers-per-staff ratio for restaurant recommendations.
Step 3. Add locations for each kitchen, floor, warehouse zone, or workstation — link to Restaurant floor plans, warehouses, or manufacturing workstations when those modules are active.
Step 4. Build shift templates with start and end times, break minutes, and typical position or location.
Step 5. Map Labour Cost, Overtime, and Wages Payable GL accounts from your chart of accounts before cost posting.

Tips

Scheduling works without HR Management — add standalone employee extensions with hourly rates until HR is licensed.
Create one shift row per seat; multi-person coverage needs multiple rows, not a headcount counter.
