Shifts crossing midnight are handled — a 22:00 to 02:00 shift counts as four hours. Nothing is saved, so print before closing the tab.
MinimalPOS reports sales by shift, day and peak hour — so next week's roster can be built on what actually happened, not on a hunch about when it gets busy.
How this free tool helps
Add your team, set start and end times for each day, and the roster totals hours and projected labour cost as you build it. That live cost column is the difference between a schedule and a spreadsheet — you can see a Saturday double landing you over budget before you publish it, not after payroll.
A roster is a plan. MinimalPOS records what actually happened — sales by shift, by day and by peak hour — so you can put your planned hours next to the revenue they produced and roster the next week better.
Explore MinimalPOS Restaurant POSEach person's hourly rate multiplied by the hours you assign them across the week, then totalled. Overnight shifts that cross midnight are handled, so a 22:00–02:00 shift counts as four hours rather than a negative number.
Yes. The print layout strips the controls and prints the grid, hours and totals on a single sheet. Print in landscape for a full week.
No. Everything stays in your browser for the session, and nothing is uploaded. That is also why there is no account to create — but it means you should print or screenshot before closing the tab.
Work back from your own numbers rather than a generic target: take your forecast revenue for the week and multiply by the labour percentage you are aiming for. Our labour cost calculator works out where you currently sit.
