Making Daily Log Entries

How to make an entry, what each option does, and the rules for editing.

Which version are you on? If you log in at login.shiftforce.com/sign-in, you're on ShiftForce — follow the first set of steps below. If you log in at ww1.shiftnote.com, you're on classic ShiftNote — scroll to the second set. 

What the Daily Log is

The Daily Log is where your managers record what happened on each shift — who called out, what broke, what a guest complained about, how the day went. It's the running record of your operation.

If you're new, write one real entry about today before you set anything else up. It's the fastest way to see how it fits.
