Control Worker login to Genius Restaurant POS

Use SocialSchedules Time Clock to control worker login to Genius Restaurant POS by mapping workers and positions

Written by Kevin

Introduction 

Once connection to Genius POS Restaurant has been established, you can choose to control staff access to Genius Restaurant POS through SocialSchedules time clock. 

When clock in occurs on SocialSchedules time clock, Genius POS Restaurant receives the worker and position associated with the clock in and uses that information to log the worker into the POS with the appropriate level of access.

In order to setup this feature you need to map workers and positions from Genius POSRestaurant to SocialSchedules.

Mapping Workers and Positions

Prerequisites:

  1. Premium Plan subscription or higher

  2. Administrator access

  3. iPad or Android tablet for SocialSchedules Time Clock

  4. Enable the 'Labor Scheduling' setting on Restaurant POS

Match Workers

In SocialSchedules > Menu (Location) > Integrations > POS > Genius Restaurant POS

Navigate to the Match Workers section within the Genius Restaurant POS integrations screen. SocialSchedules will auto match workers where name and email/phone are successfully matched. Click 'show detail' to view name, email, phone number of the worker as it is stored in SocialSchedules and Genius POS Restaurant respectively.

You can manually match workers or choose to exclude workers from the matching process by clicking 'ignore match'. When a worker has not been matched their clock ins are not sent to Genius POS Restaurant.

Match Positions

Navigate to the Match Positions section within the Genius Restaurant POS integrations screen. Match the Genius POS Restaurant position with the associated SocialSchedules position.

Once the positions are matched in SocialSchedules, ensure that all worker accounts that are setup in Genius Restaurant POS have the positions assigned under their profiles.

To do this, login to your Genius Restaurant POS account, from the main left menu, navigate to Location Setup -> Staff -> Select a worker and check Job Type to ensure all positions you would like to use for this worker in SocialSchedules are assigned as Job types.

Note: when matching positions it is a 1:1 sync match. For example: if you map Expo Trainer to Expo it will unset any existing link.
