All check-ins, checkouts, and receipt assignments are already recorded without gaps during operation. The dashboard shows the Manager the current status at all times.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Shift handover between staff members<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If staff change during an event, no technical handover is needed. The new person simply logs in to the app with their own account and selects the active event and the cloakroom. All transactions recorded so far are immediately visible \u2014 operations continue seamlessly.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Recommendations for a smooth shift change:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The new person is already logged in to the app before the shift change and is familiar with the event<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Both people briefly run a test scan to make sure everything works<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The person being relieved logs out of the app as soon as they leave the station \u2014 so it&#8217;s clear who is actively working<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">With the cash register activated: cash count<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the cash register feature is activated for the event, there is an additional task at the end of the event or at shift handover:<\/p>\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Count the cash on hand.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Compare the counted amount with the amount recorded in the app.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If they match: confirm the closing in the app.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If there are discrepancies: document them and report them to the responsible Manager.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All recorded revenue \u2014 digital and cash \u2014 can then be viewed in the dashboard and is available for the DATEV export.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Post-event analytics<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once an event is over, the Manager has all relevant data available in the dashboard:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Total number of check-ins and checkouts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Average processing times<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Length of stay<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Peak occupancy and time of peak load<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Revenue data for paid cloakrooms<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Export functions for accounting and DATEV<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p class=\"has-background wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"background-color:#f0f4ff;padding-top:16px;padding-right:16px;padding-bottom:16px;padding-left:16px\"><strong>Note:<\/strong> Individual transactions remain viewable after the event ends for the period your plan provides.
