If yes, then RosterElf is the solution you need. In this step-by-step guide, we will walk you through how to get started with RosterElf.

To start with RosterElf, the first step is to sign up for a FREE 30-day trial. You can do this by visiting the RosterElf website and clicking the "Sign Up" button. Once on the sign-up page, you must provide basic information, such as your name, email address, and password.
Once you have signed up, you will be taken to the RosterElf dashboard. This is where you will have an overlook of employee leave, pending shifts and availabilities. Before you can start using RosterElf, you must set up your account.
You will also need to set up your account preferences, such as your time zone, pay rates, and leave policies. You can find the account info at the top right, where your name/avatar is.
Click on the “Sites” at the top and add sites. This can be different businesses or areas of one bigger business (like a bar, floor, kitchen etc.). This way, you can create rosters for each team.
There will be a default site already created for you. You can edit it or add a new one by clicking the +.
The next step is to add your employees to RosterElf. This can be done by clicking the "Staff" tab on the dashboard and then the "+" button. You must provide basic information about your employees, such as their names, contact details, and employment type.
You can also set up their pay rates, leave entitlements, and availability. Alternatively, you can bulk upload your staff through our Xero integration or CSV file.
Once you have added your employees, you can start creating rosters. To create a schedule, click the "Roster" tab on the dashboard. You must select a week and a site/team for the schedule and then assign shifts to your employees. You can also set up recurring schedules and save and download them as templates.
Once you have created your schedule, you can publish it to your employees. To do this, click on the "Publish" button on the roster page. Your employees will receive an email notification with their shifts and any other relevant information. They can also view their schedule on their RosterElf app or via the online portal.
RosterElf also allows you to manage your employees' timesheets and payroll. To do this, click the "Payroll" tab on the dashboard. You can then view and approve timesheets, add comments, and export data to your payroll system. Watch our video guide for setting up payroll.
