Question

The Labor Budget row is below Forecasted Sales, Forecasted Transactions on the drop down at the bottom of the weekview of a schedule. Where does that data come from?

Answer 1

The forecasted sales and forecasted transactions comes from Zip Forecast which polls sales and transaction data from your POS (NCR[Aloha], Micros, Xpient) which you can try for 30 day free. If you aren't using one of the integrated POS systems you can import your data at the end of each week.

If you are using one of the integrated POS systems you can get another app, Free POS Reports and follow the instructions to install the poller on your back office server.

Also, the labor budget will be accessible from site settings in our upcoming June release which allows you to set a budget % for the day and week to use as a guide when creating schedules.
