Make Employees Exempt From Clocking In and Out

Toast requires any employee with an hourly job to clock in and out. An hourly employee needs their time entries tracked for labor, reporting, and payroll purposes. Because of this, the only way an individual can avoid clocking in and out is if they only have a non-tipped, salaried role assigned to them and if their role is configured as a cashier job; they cannot have any hourly roles assigned to them nor can they have a tipped salaried job assigned to them.

To check which jobs are hourly, salary, and tipped, navigate to Employees > Employee management > Jobs. The Pay Basis setting will list a job as either Hourly or Salaried. The Tipped employee setting will indicate whether a job is available to receive tips or not.

To verify which jobs an employee is assigned to, navigate to Employees > Employee management > Employees. Locate your employee and select the edit pencil icon next to their name. On the Jobs & pay tab, check and uncheck the appropriate jobs here. Save any changes you make.
