General Subtab

This article is part of the 'Labor Matrix' on the Smart Ops 'Admin' page. 

The Labor Matrix opens to the General subtab, where Restaurant Operating Hours and Scheduled Jobs are selected.

The Labor Type for each Job being scheduled is also set on this subtab. The Labor Type will determine if the settings on the 'Fixed Labor' subtab or the 'Variable Labor' subtab are applied when forecasting Labor. 

• Fixed - Non-Service related Jobs that are not directly dependent on Sales volume, such as salaried managers.

• Variable - Service-related Jobs that are directly dependent on Sales volume, such as the number of servers and cooks.

Restaurant Operating Hours

Restaurant Operating Hours are used for Hourly Forecasting, Scheduling, and the Operations Dashboard to focus attention on the hours within the Business Day that Labor should fall. 

Operating Hours must be contained within a single Business Day for the selected Location. By default, the first hour of a Location's Business Day is 12:00 am. When Start of Business Day is enabled, the first hour of the day can be set to be in alignment with the POS End of Day Time. Contact your CSM or R365 Support to learn how 'Start of Business Day' can enhance your R365 experience!

Hourly Forecasts will only be applied to hours within the defined Operating Hours for a Location, while Labor reporting will include all scheduled and actual shifts, even if they fall outside of the defined Operating Hours.

Jobs To Be Scheduled

The 'Jobs To Be Scheduled' table lists all Jobs associated with the Location selected. Here, Jobs can be turned on or off for use in the Scheduler, as well as have their Labor Type defined. The Labor Type will determine if the settings on the 'Fixed Labor' subtab or the 'Variable Labor' subtab are applied when forecasting Labor.

   • - Job is included on the Scheduler
