Worker FAQ

Q: What if the worker only sells retail and does not require a login or a column on the appointment book?
A: Active Login is unchecked, the Allow Retail Sales is checked on the Worker Other Tab and a payroll method of Retail Only is selected. This allows the business to credit a retail sale to a worker and report on their commission in payroll, however that person does not have a login or a column on the appointment book.
Q: What if the worker only tracks hours but does not need a login. Example: An assistant, or cleaning crew?  
A: Active Login is unchecked, the Uses Time Clock is checked, an Hourly Wage is entered, and a payroll method is assigned. With another worker logged in, this type of worker can clock in and clock out, but will not have an active login to the software, or a column on the appointment book. The business can report on this worker’s hours and compensation.
Q: What if a worker is terminated?
A:  Uncheck Active Login. This will remove the users ability to login to the software. Change Online Hours on Worker Services tab to –none--. Next, move or cancel all future appointments. Once the appointments are moved, change Schedule on Worker Services tab to –none--, and on the Other Tab, uncheck Allow Retail Sales & Uses Time Clock. Finally, change the Compensation Method to –None--.
Q: What if a worker starts in the future?
A: Worker Detail Start Date should be today’s date. In Company Hours, create items in the custom hours list for today, up until worker’s official booking date, with All Day Off. This allows workers to start booking future appointments immediately, but block off the available search calendar until the date the worker will actually be performing their first appointments.
