In order to complete any daily operations, a date must first be opened.
Select an operating day from the calendar by clicking on a date. Then, click Ok.
Dates appearing in red indicate the day has been closed. Dates appearing in green indicate the day is currently open. It is recommended that all daily tasks are completed and the day is closed prior to starting a new operating day. |
Daily operations are completed by using the ribbon at the top of the screen or the Checklist to the left of the screen. Some checklist items are completed daily, weekly, or monthly. Depending on system setup, some tasks will link you directly to a website (i.e., Check email, Check freezer temp). By hovering over a task, you can see the due date.
As system checklist tasks have been completed, a checkmark is placed in the box. Custom checklist tasks will need to be checked off by the user once complete. |
When a checklist item is overdue, a clipboard with a warning sign will appear notating that the checklist item is overdue. |
Once all tasks have been completed for a day, the day should be closed.
Enter any necessary comments relative to the operating day. Then, click Ok.
You must acknowledge that you have reviewed all daily operations and affirm that everything is complete and accurate to the best of your knowledge and /or abilities prior to proceeding. |
You may be alerted if you are required to enter meal counts before closing an operating day and no served counts are present. |
On occasion, it may be necessary to reopen a past day in order to make corrections. This should not occur on a regular basis. In the situation where is occurs on a regular basis, the user should revisit the User's Manual.
Once necessary changes have been completed, close the day again.
If more than one operating day is open, you will be prompted to select the correct date to close. Then, click Ok. |
