Simple Rostering is the default for new Simple Salon accounts. It's a one week roster, so the hours you set for each operator repeat every week. If your team's hours change week to week, or you want wages tracked from the roster, use Advanced Rostering instead.
Setting your opening hours
- Go to Roster.
- Click Opening Hours at the bottom of the page.
- Set your trading hours for each day and switch off the days you're not open so they show Closed.
- Click Save.
Public Holidays and Alternate Trading Hours
Next to Opening Hours is the Public Holidays/Alternate Trading Hours link. This still opens the classic Simple Salon admin screens in a pop-up. You can also get here via Admin > Lists > Public Holidays & Alternate Trading Hours.
- Click New on the right side panel.
- Choose Type: Public Holiday or Alternate Trading Hours.
- Give it a name and a date. For Alternate Trading Hours, also set a From and To time.
- Click Save.
A Public Holiday closes your Appointments page for that date, even on a day you'd normally be open. Alternate Trading Hours does the opposite, it opens up a day you're normally closed, with its own hours for just that day. Come back to this page any time you need to add or remove one.
Setting your operator hours
Go to Roster. Click a working day pill under the operator's name to open their hours.
- Click a day's pill in the operator's row.
- In the pop-up, set the hours they work each day, and switch off the days they're not working.
- Click Save.
- Repeat for each operator.
You can also set operator hours from Admin > Operators, then the Roster link next to an operator.
