Four practical jobs in daily hotel operations.
A colleague calls in sick
The manager sees the open shift in the rota, asks for cover in the housekeeping role chat and enters the replacement. Whoever is scheduled sees the change in the published rota. No phone call at six in the morning.
Front desk shift handover
The early shift writes the handover with the open points. The late shift reviews and accepts it, and open tasks carry on. Nothing gets lost between two shifts.
Month end and payroll
Staff submit their hours, the manager approves them and closes the month. You export the approved hours for payroll. Your payroll office still runs the payroll itself.
Checks that come round every week
The manager sets up the weekly minibar or fire door check once as a recurring task. The owner sees the due date and checklist, and the reviewer signs off the result.
Common questions: Team: rota, time, chat & tasks
Does Team cost extra?+
No. Rota, time tracking, absences, team chat and tasks are part of the STRYK base price of €59 plus €6 per room per month. There is no price per employee.
Does “Plan week” produce the perfect rota automatically?+
No, and it is not meant to. STRYK builds a proposal for one week using fixed, transparent rules and no external AI service. The proposal stays a draft until you review and publish it. Shifts that are already published stay as they are.
What does “Plan week” need?+
Employment and weekly hours, planning roles, confirmed availability, minimum staffing and shift templates. If anything is missing, STRYK shows what it is and where to add it.
Does STRYK check working time law?+
STRYK shows notes on rest periods, maximum hours and contract hours while you plan. The rules are currently set up for Austria and help with planning; they are not legal proof. Compliance remains the employer’s responsibility.
Does STRYK run payroll?+
No. Pay calculation, deductions and payments are not part of STRYK. You export the approved working hours for your payroll office.
How does a leave request work?+
The employee requests leave and another authorised person approves it. Nobody can approve their own request. Before approval STRYK shows how the leave balance will change. Employees can withdraw open requests themselves.
Can the team chat replace the WhatsApp group?+
That is what it is built for: direct and group chats, automatic chats per role and per task, mentions, photos and files. Work conversations stay inside the business instead of on private phones.
Who sees what?+
Everyone works with a personal login and the permissions of their role. Planning, approving absences, recording time and managing projects are separate permissions. Personal to-dos are only visible to the person who created them.
Is there an app for the team?+
Yes. With the STRYK app for iPhone and Android, the team has rota, time tracking, absences and tasks with them. STRYK also runs in the browser on any device.
