What’s The 7shifts Integration?

7shifts is an employee schedule management system for hospitality businesses. 7shifts helps manage employee schedules, forecast sales, and more! With the Arryved + 7shifts Integration, your POS sales and labor data are synced with 7shifts to provide the most accurate and up-to-date forecasting. Use this guide to complete the steps to integrate your Arryved POS with your 7shifts account. 

Prerequisites

• To complete the steps in this guide, you must be an Arryved Portal Super Admin or an Admin with one of the following Permissions:

• COMPANY SETTINGS

• ALL ACCESS

• FULL ADMIN

Limitations

• 7shifts automatically bills your account for each Arryved Location synced with the integration.

• The Employee Sync does not support employee removals. To fully remove an employee, they must be manually removed from both places:

• If you remove an employee just from your Arryved Portal, the sync will not deactivate the same employee in 7shifts. 

• If you deactivate an employee just from 7shifts, but they are still active in your Arryved Portal, the sync will continue to link the Portal employee to the deactivated 7shifts employee. Please note that 7shifts does not allow employees to be fully deleted.

Setup Guide

Whether you have a 7shifts account already or not, you can start here:

Step 1: Reconcile Your Employees

For your employees to be properly synced in both your POS and 7shifts, they must have a matching first name, last name, and valid email address. If there are variations, you may experience duplicates. 

• Employees in both places: If you have any employees who are already entered in both your Arryved Portal and 7shifts, make sure their first and last names and email addresses are spelled the same in both places. A mismatch will create duplicates when the sync takes place. 

• Employees in 7shifts: If you have any employees who are only entered in 7shifts but you also want them synced with your POS, make sure to enter them into your Arryved Portal with matching names and email addresses before syncing. 

• Employees in Arryved: If you have employees in your Arryved Portal, but not in 7shifts, the sync will create them as new employees in your 7shifts. No action needed. 
  

Step 2: Set Up Third Party Support 

After you’ve reconciled your employee list, you can begin to set up the integration:
