so for those that also often forget to end work period like me or just want it automated i have made a setup that will hopefully will help you guys
so first off we gonna make 2 actions for the start and end work periods
then depending on how many reports you want to print you create these action (i only want 2: work and items report to print)
so that are the actions
step 2 is creating triggers for automated start/end work period
basicly you select the time when you start/end the shifts and like you can see i selected 20,21 in hour for my start period cause my business opens at different times daily so by doing that and selecting in minutes: “every minute (*)” it will start work period once the computer is started in one of the 2hours same for end work period once all tables are paid it will end work period during the selected time frame(it will not close work period if a table still isnt paid)
now the final step creating the rules
here you will create 2 rules for the start/end work period
now for the auto print report you create this rule
and for those who use multiple terminal just select a main terminal in both “auto end work period rule” and “auto print report rule” that way only one screen will end work period and the print will know where to look (if not done it will print for every terminal you have open)
