Reporting filters, POS break controls, and setup improvements
Since our last scheduling and reporting update, we’ve added more controls and polish across reports, Shopify POS, onboarding, and store data sync.
- Reports now preserve selected date ranges, staff filters, and location filters in the URL, so managers can switch report tabs, refresh, or share a filtered report view without losing context.
- Daily Summary, Location Daily Summary, Shift Summary, and Staff Activity reports now include clickable Staff IDs that open the staff detail page and return managers back to the report they came from.
- Staff detail pages now open to a more useful default date range based on the staff member’s most recent shifts, making recent time activity easier to review.
- Admins can now set a maximum number of POS breaks per shift. Leave it blank for unlimited breaks, or set 0 to disable POS break starts while still allowing managers to adjust shifts from Shopify Admin.
- Shopify POS now better reflects the current staff member and session when switching staff or reopening the Time Clock and Schedule extensions.
- The Getting Started guide now automatically completes the “Add Time Clock” step once the POS time clock has been opened, and the setup steps have been tightened around POS setup and first schedule publishing.
- Store names now stay in sync when they are updated in Shopify, so POS Time Tracker reflects the current shop name more reliably.
- API documentation has been refreshed with clearer examples, pagination details, and response fields for staff and shift data.

Scheduling, reporting, and time entry improvements
Since our last payroll and reporting update, we’ve added more tools to make scheduling, manual time entry, reporting, and POS time tracking smoother.
- Stores with access to the new Location Daily Summary report can now review daily hours by staff member and location, filter by location, and export the results for payroll review.
- Schedule publishing now gives managers two options: publish and notify staff, or publish only and share the staff portal link manually.
- Manual shift entry has been redesigned with clearer sections for location, shift times, and breaks, plus live duration, work-hours, and break-hours totals.
- Overnight shifts and breaks are easier to enter, with “Next Day” labels when times roll past midnight.
- The Getting Started guide now includes setup videos directly in each step and links straight to Shopify’s Smart Grid Editor.
- POS clock actions are more reliable when multiple devices or rapid status changes are involved, with better retry handling and clearer location validation.
- API documentation and behavior have been tightened up, including clearer error responses, rate-limit headers, exact staff ID filtering, and inclusive date filters for entries.

Payroll, reporting, and POS reliability updates
Since launching staff scheduling, we’ve added several improvements to make payroll prep, reporting, and day-to-day time tracking smoother.
- Enterprise stores can now add Custom IDs to staff members, either individually or by uploading a CSV template. These IDs help match staff to payroll systems like ADP and Paychex.
- Daily Summary now supports Paychex employee totals exports, and ADP exports now use Custom IDs for cleaner payroll files.
- Staff detail pages now include export and print options for the selected date range, including regular hours, overtime hours, total hours, and estimated pay.
- Staff Activity and Shift Summary reports now include Custom IDs for Enterprise stores and load more smoothly.
- The POS time clock and Smart Tile now stay in sync more reliably, especially around breaks and status changes made from another device.
- Schedule pages are easier to use on smaller screens, and the Staff Portal shows cleaner date labels, shift notes, and location details.
- Manual shift entry now gives clearer messages when shifts overlap or when a break needs to be ended before clocking out.

Staff Scheduling
You can now create and manage staff schedules directly in POS Time Tracker. Build weekly schedules, assign shifts, copy past weeks to save time, and print schedules for your team. Once published, staff can view their shifts on POS using the new “My Schedule” smart tile or in the new Staff Portal.

Weekly overtime calculations
You can now see weekly overtime automatically calculated from tracked time, so totals reflect regular vs overtime hours at the week level.
- Weekly summaries include overtime hours (and remaining regular hours) for faster payroll review.
- Overtime is based on your configured week start day and overtime threshold.
