Actions explained

The things a rule can do when it fires, from showing a panel to creating a task.

Reporting Incidents, Accidents & Near-Misses

File incidents, accidents and near-misses on the Health & safety page, review them, and keep the evidence insurers and inspectors expect.

Submitting Handover & End-of-Shift Reports

Raise handover notes at the end of a shift, see how the next shift picks them up at check-in, and where managers review them.

Admin Panel vs Mobile App

When to use the admin panel and when to use the app, and how managers move between them.

Monitoring Customer Reviews

Bring your reviews into Paddl, read the AI sentiment and themes, catch compliance flags, and see who was on shift.

Why did my rota notification change?

With team chat switched on, some notifications become posts in a channel instead of a push to everybody. Here is what moved and what did not.

Open shifts and swaps in chat

Publish a week and the unfilled shifts land in the site channel as cards staff can claim, and a shift somebody cannot work can be given away from the thread.

Routines and Checklists

See today's tasks across your sites, build recurring checklists with rich field types, schedule them flexibly, assign them, and change them later.

Staff availability

Which days people have said they cannot work, how it shows on the rota, and recording it for somebody yourself.

Notification Settings

Choose what notifies you and how, set quiet hours, and get a message to the whole team.

The App for Contractors

How contractors sign in, keep credentials current, sign documents, see their events, and track their hours.

Understanding Alerts

What Paddl alerts mean, how they are raised, and how to clear them before an inspection.

Manager Mode on the Mobile App

Switch into manager mode for an overview of your team, compliance, sign-offs, and quick reporting.

Confirming and cancelling Paddy actions

Ask Paddy always shows you what it is about to do and waits for you to confirm. Here is how that works and what gets recorded.

The Inbox

What lands in the Inbox tab of the bell, who sees it, and how each item clears.

Handovers

Where handover and end-of-day reports live in the admin panel, how to acknowledge one, and what the Handovers module switches on.

Managing Contractors

Set credential requirements, invite contractors, review their documents, and control access with events.

Leave requests and holiday

Where requests for time off arrive, what the review shows before you decide, and booking leave for somebody yourself.

Who can see sales and labour cost

Sales are owner-only unless the owner lets managers in. Labour cost has its own switch. What each setting exposes.

Knowledge Hub and Ask Paddy

Build a searchable knowledge base, and use Ask Paddy to answer questions from it and to set work up for you.

Staff are not getting push notifications

If notifications are not reaching a phone, the usual cause is the phone itself blocking Paddl, even when every switch inside Paddl is on.

Ask Paddy cannot answer a question or will not do something

Why Paddy comes back with nothing, why it sometimes declines an action on purpose, and what to do about each.

We keep getting logged out on a tablet

Why a shared tablet seemed to log itself out or "expire" mid-shift, and how the device PIN replaces that.

Team Chat: the basics

Where chat lives on the phone and in the admin panel, which channels you get, and what happens to a conversation when somebody leaves.

What Ask Paddy can do for you

Ask Paddy can set up routines, book visits, draft paperwork, chase your team and build an audit pack. Here is what to ask for.

Unfilled shift alerts

When Paddl tells you a published shift has nobody on it, how the till changes the order, and how the alert clears.

What the till sync brings in

What Paddl reads from Square, how often, how long a day keeps settling, and which features each figure feeds.

Publishing a rota, and what the notice counter means

What staff see when you publish, and why Paddl records how much notice each change gave.

Add manager notes to the handover report

Leave attributed notes on the day's handover so the next shift knows what changed.

Eligibility warnings on the rota

What each warning means, and why Paddl warns you rather than stopping you.

Building your first rota

Draft a week, copy last week forward, and save a template you can reuse.

Reviewing Records & Sign-Offs (Manager)

Review submitted records, chase sign-offs and clear handovers from manager mode, and find the same list as the Inbox in the admin panel.
