How the desk runs

One platform, from the cover call to the invoice.

  • Who is free, right now

    A store needs four colleagues for a bank holiday weekend. Booking Desk shows which colleagues are available, cleared and suitable, so the booking is filled on the call.

  • The list worth ringing first

    Retail peaks repeat every year, so last Christmas's list is the fastest route to covering this one. Plain-English search runs across everyone you have placed, and pulls a profile from LinkedIn into the record in a click.

  • Checks beside the button

    Before anyone is committed the desk shows whether the colleague can be paid, where they stand on AWR, and how the rate compares. What the store is really judging is whether the colleague is inducted and on the floor at opening — so the check happens before the booking, not after.

  • Timesheets without the chasing

    Stores approve online through branded portals, and scanned or photographed timesheets are read automatically and queued for review.

  • Pay the week, bill the client

    PAYE with AWR and holiday pay, run weekly from approved hours, run from the hours that were approved — and the store invoiced in the same straight-through run.

  • Where the week stands

    Dashman shows fill-rate by store, cover by shift and where the week is short, in one live view rather than a spreadsheet rebuilt every Friday.

Checks and clearances

On the record before anyone is placed

Right-to-work documents and store inductions are confirmed against the worker before a booking is committed, with expiry alerts and an automated chase when something is missing.

How documents and expiry work
  • Right-to-work documents with expiry alerts
  • Store inductions recorded against the placement
  • AWR position visible at the point of booking
  • Configured fatigue, break and recent-hours checks

Questions

Temp Retail recruitment software questions.

How quickly can a retail shift be filled?

Start from the open job or from the colleague. The desk shows who is free, who is booked elsewhere, and who is cleared, so the booking can be made on the call rather than after a round of phoning.

What happens when a booking is cancelled at short notice?

Cancel the job or the booking with the date and the reason attached. The history stays on the record, so the whole team has the same answer when the store asks about it weeks later.

Does it handle AWR and holiday pay?

PAYE, AWR and holiday pay run from the hours approved on the timesheet, and umbrella and limited arrangements run for contractors on the same approved workflow.

Can we see a whole week of bookings at once?

Timeline shows the week read down the people or down the jobs: who is on what, for which client, on which day, with the unfilled gaps visible.

What checks does a retail placement need?

Right-to-work documents and store inductions are confirmed against the worker before a booking is committed, with expiry alerts and an automated chase when something is missing. The desk holds right-to-work documents with expiry alerts, store inductions recorded against the placement, AWR position visible at the point of booking, configured fatigue, break and recent-hours checks.
