Now that you’ve setup your store, you can add employees, configure for your products, and begin tracking and monitoring all stages of your products and employee tasks. This is how you setup a new employee and edit an existing employee.
NOTE: Below are the steps to Add and Edit individual employees in the Spoiler Alert App. However, if you need to setup a large group of employees, you may want to upload employee information from a spread sheet (.csv file).

Always begin by choosing to edit your store:
This will be the same start to every task the owner needs to do such as Edit/Add Employees and with all the functions of the setting up and editing products like Edit Product Shelf Life, Edit Products, Units of Measure, etc.
1. From the main screen tap Edit
2. Tap the store you wish to Edit (In this case we will choose Spicy Mike's)
Owner Login:
This will be the same start to every task the owner needs to do such as Edit/Add Employees and with all the functions of the setting up and editing products like Edit Product Shelf Life, Edit Products, Units of Measure, etc.
1. Enter the Owner Password you chose when you initially set up your store. (Remember this is case sensitive)
2. Tap OK
3. TIP - Whenever you see the paper and pencil Icon next to your store name you know it’s in Edit mode.

Setup New Employees
Refer to the corresponding arrows on the left to setup new employees:
1. Give the Employee an ID Number. This can be anything you wish, numbers/letters or both
2. Enter Employee’s First Name
3. Enter Employee’s Last Name
4. This is how the employee’s name will print on the labels. This could be “nick name” or whatever they want to be called.
5. Enter a PIN for the employee. The can be any combo of numbers/letters or both. They will need to know this PIN to use the app. If they forget their PIN an Owner or Manager will need to login to view the PIN.
IMPORTANT > Click Save to retain this new information
*TIP- An owner or manager can always Activate or De-Activate an employee in the app. You will always have them in the system so you won’t duplicate ID numbers and PIN’s. This is convenient if you have seasonal employees or if employees take a leave of absence.

BULK UPLOAD PRODUCTS AND EMPLOYEES FROM SPREADSHEET
*NOTE: This video shows how to edit and bulk import products using a Spreadsheet program (Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, or Apple Numbers) to import into Spoiler Alert. The same steps are used when bulk importing employees. The IMPORTANT thing you should note is:
IMPORTANT: DO NOT CHANGE TEXT IN 1ST LINE OF THESE TEMPLATES. These are the column headings and they MUST remain as is for your .csv file to import correctly into the Spoiler Alert App.
Headings for PRODUCTS should remain as: Product - Status - Expire - Expire Units
Headings for EMPLOYEES should remain as: Employee ID – Employee First Name – Employee Last Name – Print As – PIN
