Common questions

How do I track staff hours and tips without buying a separate time-clock app?

Pludor includes time tracking in its POS: staff switch in and out with their own PIN, and each sale is attributed to whoever is on shift. Add your team in Team Staff, set POS PINs, and open Hours, Wages & Tips to see hours, wages and tips per person. No extra app or hardware is needed.

How does staff clock-in work on the Pludor POS?

Each staff member gets a unique POS PIN, set in Team Staff. At the start of a shift they switch in on the POS with that PIN, and every sale they ring up is attributed to them. Hours, wages and tips then appear per person in the Hours, Wages & Tips report.

It's on for every store, including the Free plan - you get a free amount every month and then pay only for what you use, at 1 credit = 1 cent. The first 2 team members are free; additional team members use 200 credits each per month. New stores also get 500 free credits.

How do I set up staff accounts in Pludor?

Open Team Staff from the Management menu and invite each person with their name and email. Give them a POS PIN and a role; they sign in with their own account, and 2FA uses their phone. Remove them from Team Staff when they leave.

How do I pay out tips and wages to my staff at end of day?

In Team Staff, open Hours, Wages & Tips to see what each person earned, then use the Pay Out action to record payment. To reconcile everything, run the End of Day report in POS - it shows totals by payment type and staff pay-outs, and you can print it for your records.

Can I see which employee made each sale?

Yes - when staff switch in with their POS PIN, every sale is attributed to the staff member on shift. That means your reports show who rang up what, which helps with tips and accountability. Set this up by adding staff and PINs in Team Staff.

What's the End of Day report and how do I use it?

It closes the register with totals by payment type and staff pay-outs. In POS, tap End of Day, pick the date, count the cash against the drawer, record any tip or wage pay-outs, and print the report for your records.
