Walk up to the shared device, tap your card, clock in or out, and know what to do if the screen is offline or looks wrong.
Plan and optimize delivery routes
Build one route plan for a day and fulfillment location, add stops when needed, and optimize the stop order for drivers and loaders.

Map Square items to recipes, test the sync in dry-run mode, and review depletion results before you let inventory write automatically.

Use the schedule board to monitor coverage during the week
Use the schedule board as a live manager view for coverage, not only as a one-time publishing surface.
Use the dashboard to spot issues early
Use the dashboard as a manager triage view so problems show up while they are still small enough to fix quickly.
