Staff Import Interface
The most popular import into the MealSuite POS is the staff import interface, which provides an automated method to keep your MealSuite staff/employee diners up to date.
The staff import interface is particularly beneficial if you manage a large number of staff members. The interface can also automatically assign staff to a charge account.
To initiate the import, MealSuite requires a .csv file uploaded to an SFTP site. The format of the file can be customized to your preferences. For instance, if you export an up-to-date staff list from your HR software and prefer not to edit it before uploading it to the MealSuite SFTP, then we can accommodate this. The typical and mandatory information MealSuite requires to create your staff diners is as follows:
- First Name
- Last Name
- Employee ID
- Badge ID (optional, but necessary if using an RFID or barcode scanner for ticket assignment)
If you have groups of staff members that require different charge account assignments upon import, we can accommodate these group assignments through the use of diner categories (aka people groups) in the system.
First Name | Last Name | Employee ID | Badge ID | People Group |
Beth | Campbell | 65478 | 65478 | Physician |
Paul | Robertson | 78145 | Volunteer | |
George | MacKinnon | 23587 | 00000000133 | Part-Time Staff |
User Management Interface
Many MealSuite corporation clients and clients with larger accounts utilize a user management interface to automate the creation of POS and Touch app users, and also administration users. This interface therefore ensures that users are accurately created, updated, and assigned the appropriate roles upon file import.
