Navigate to Staff Page

Adding or modifying clock entries all happen in the staff view page. To get there, follow the instructions below:

1. Open POS Time Tracker in Shopify Admin

  • Only Shopify Admin users can create or edit clock entries.

2. Go to Staff

  • In the sidebar, choose Staff to see a list of employees.

3. Pick the Staff Member

  • Click the staff member whose shift you want to add or adjust. Their Shifts table appears.

Create a Shift

  1. Click Create Shift (top-right).

  2. Location – Choose a location.

  3. Clock-in / Clock-out

    • Leave Clock-out blank for an open shift.

  4. (Optional) Add Break – Click Add Break, then set a start and end time. Repeat for multiple breaks.

  5. Click Save.

Edit a Shift

  1. In the Shifts table, click a shift’s Start time to open the editor.

  2. Update Location, Clock-in, Clock-out, or any break times.

  3. Add Break to insert more breaks, or click the trash icon to delete a break.

  4. Click Save.

Delete Shift

  1. Click the shift’s Start time to open it.

  2. Select Delete Shift (top-right) and confirm.

    • All associated breaks are removed with the shift.

  • Entries must follow chronological order: Clock-in → Break Start → Break End → Clock-out.

  • You can’t create a new shift if the employee already has an open shift (two clock-ins in a row).

  • If validation fails, review the times to ensure they don’t overlap and appear in the correct sequence.
