Stations
Stations represent a place or activity to which a team member is assigned.
Locations such as “Kitchen” or “Bar” may be considered a “Station”. Equally a Station may be an area of responsibility such as “Busser”, “Line Chef”.
Choose a color for Stations to improve visibility on your schedules.
The Sequence field lets you control the order in which the Stations appear on the Schedule.
