Your team: register PINs, roles and the time clock
Add staff, give them register PINs, choose what they may do, and clock in and out.
Add a team member
- In the owner dashboard, open Team and press Add team member.
- Enter their name and their jobs (Cashier, Server, Kitchen, Driver, Manager, Host, Bartender). Jobs are labels for your schedule; they do not grant anything.
- Choose their access — what they may do: Owner, Manager, Register & kitchen staff or Delivery driver. Only an owner can make someone a manager.
- Choose how they join: Add now — register PIN only (you set a 4–6 digit PIN, shown once), or Invite by email (a one-time link that lasts 72 hours).
A person appears on the register only once they have a register PIN. Use Set PIN or Reset PIN on their row; DineStack never shows a PIN again after it is set.
What managers can do that staff cannot
- Voids, discounts and comps — staff can still do them with a manager’s approval. The register asks a manager to enter their PIN and a reason, for that one action only.
- Close the day, review drawers, see reports and refunds in the owner dashboard.
- Managers can manage staff and drivers. Adding devices and making someone a manager is for owners.
The time clock
- On the register’s sign-in screen, tap Staff clock — clock in or out.
- Tap your name and enter your PIN.
- Tap Clock in, Start break, End break or Clock out. Only the buttons that make sense right now appear.
Clocking works with no internet; it reaches DineStack when the connection is back. Managers correct a punch in Workforce → Time clock with a reason, and the original punch stays on the record.
When someone leaves
Open their row in Team to suspend them or mark them as left. Their history stays; their PIN stops working.
