ROSTERING FOR RESTAURANTS

Build predictable weekly structures with roster templates

Most restaurants run on a repeating weekly rhythm. Payroller lets you save your current roster as a template and reuse it week after week—or copy last week’s schedule and make minor adjustments. Build once, repeat indefinitely.

Whether you’re scheduling for a regular trading week or adapting for seasonal periods, recurring shift patterns mean less admin and fewer errors every cycle.

STAFF COMMUNICATION

Reduce no-shows and last-minute confusion

Clear, immediate shift communication is non-negotiable in hospitality. When a roster is published or updated, Payroller automatically notifies staff via the Employee app and email. No more chasing people on WhatsApp.

Staff have one place to check their weekly schedule, accept or decline shifts, and see any changes the moment you make them.

  • Automatic in-app notifications when shifts are published
  • Instant alerts when shift changes occur
  • Employees accept or decline rostered shifts directly in the app

Our AI rostering system optimises shift assignments in real time with cost tracking built in, so you’re always making staffing decisions with full visibility over the numbers.
