Team chat, overview and work time

Chat with your team like on your phone, see your next shifts and tasks in one place and start your work time right in Team.

What you can do safely afterwards
  • You find any chat quickly and write, reply, react and send photos.
  • You see your next shifts, tasks, requests, handovers and absences on one page.
  • You start and end your work time with one button and always see how long it has been running.
What you need before starting
  • Your hotel has booked the Team module and your profile is a team member.
  • Chats need the chat permission, the work time button needs the time recording permission.
01

Team has three entries: “Roster” (plan, work times, absences, team), “Tasks” (mine, all, projects, handovers) and “Chat”. Old links to the former Today page open the chat with the overview.

02

The chat list

Search finds chats by name. The filters “All”, “Unread”, “Direct” and “Groups” narrow the list; role and task chats and the archive are in the more menu. Every row shows the last message, its time and the number of unread messages. “Draft” marks a chat with an unsent text.

Own messages are on the right, the others on the left. Day separators, replies, reactions and photos stay readable at any width.
03

Write a message

Enter sends, Shift+Enter starts a new line. Drafts are saved automatically and are still there on another device. Two ticks mean that the message has been read; click them to see who read it.

Reply to a colleague with a photo

  1. 01
    Reply

    The quoted message appears above the input field.
  2. 02
    Mention and attach

    Type “@” and choose the colleague, then add photos with the paper clip.

    The photo preview opens with a caption field.
  3. 03
    Send

    Choose “Send”.

    The message appears on the right with the quote, photo and one tick.
04

Overview

The overview shows five compact blocks: my next shifts, my tasks, requests and swaps, handovers and absences. Every row opens the original, “All” opens the full list. Empty blocks say so in one sentence.

Shifts that need your consent can be accepted directly in the overview.
05

Work time in Team

Start, break and end sit as a card at the top of the overview and under Roster → Work times. A click on “Start work” starts the time; the card then shows the running time with “Start break” and “End work”.

What the button shows
StateMeaning
StartNo work time is running. One click starts it.
Running time, e.g. 2:07Work time or break is running. The card offers break and end.
LockedTime recording is switched off for the hotel or you lack the permission. The card names the reason.
06

On the phone

On the phone the chat list fills the screen. Opening a chat or the overview shows it full screen; the arrow at the top left leads back to the list.

Final review
