Multi-Location Restaurant Schedule Template.xlsx
Stop double-booking employees across locations
When you're running multiple stores, the same employee can easily end up on two schedules at once—especially if managers aren't checking in with each other. This template automatically flags when someone is scheduled at two locations simultaneously, or when back-to-back shifts don't leave enough travel time between stores. You'll catch the problem before your phone starts blowing up.
See your labor costs before the week starts
Most schedule templates show you who's working—but they don't show you what it's costing. This template connects shift assignments to pay rates and projected sales, so you can see your estimated labor percentage before you publish. See weekly and daily views of where each location stands against budget.
