Additional Information

Once saved, the Alarm will be under the Alarms List for you to edit or delete if necessary. 

This alarm will send you the current labour cost if it is higher than your current sales data. This will assist your team with determining if you need to send employees home or adjust the schedule for the day.

You have the option to set time frames of when the system should be looking at the labour cost and what specific Revenue Centers should be included for the sales data.  

Note, the sales amount will be dependent if you have a POS integration or manually inputting sales. 

Please note that only Super Administrators and Team Administrators with permission to Alarms have the ability to setup Alarms.
