Friday needs 5 staff. Tuesday needs 2. One schedule handles both.

Bar scheduling is a different beast. Late nights, variable demand, part-time staff with gig schedules.

The group chat era
  • Barback no-shows 2 hours before a packed Friday
  • Part-timers whose availability changes every single week
  • Your closer got scheduled for the opening shift. Again.
  • You're the bartender, the manager, and the door. Again.
  • "Anyone free Saturday?" texts that go unanswered for hours
With Turnozo
  • Open shifts go to available staff instantly
  • Staff update their own availability every week
  • Templates for quiet nights vs packed weekends
  • Staff clock in, timesheets build themselves
  • Everyone sees the same schedule, always current

Schedule templates

Different templates for different nights

Monday needs 2 people. Friday needs 5. Save templates for each night type, drop the right one in, adjust for who's available. Stop rebuilding from scratch every week. Part of Turnozo's scheduling tools.

  • Separate templates for peak vs quiet nights
  • Drag-and-drop to adjust staffing levels
  • Reuse patterns so you're not rebuilding every week
Open shifts

Barback no-showed on Friday. Line's out the door.

Post the shift as open. Available staff get notified on their phone. First to accept gets it. No group chat begging, no calling down a list. Part of Turnozo's scheduling tools.

  • Available staff notified instantly
  • One tap to accept
  • Schedule updates for the whole team

Students, musicians, part-timers. All in one view.

Half your team has a different schedule every week. With Turnozo, they update their own availability from their phone. You see who's actually free before you start building the rota.

  • See who's free before you build the week
  • Time-off requests with manager approval

  • Mobile clock-in with GPS verification
  • Late-night shifts tracked across midnight
  • Export timesheets for payroll
  • Overtime flagged automatically
