Staff Management, Permissions and Commission Tracking
Each staff member is defined with their own working hours, time off and the services they provide. Role-based permissions determine what each person can see, and once per-service commission rates are set, every completed appointment feeds earnings automatically.
What problem does it solve?
Calculating commission by hand costs time at month end and creates arguments. Without permissions, every staff member can see all the financial data.
What you can do
Staff calendars
Working days, time ranges, breaks and time-off records are defined per person.
Role-based permissions
Staff see their own calendar and assigned records, not the full financial picture. Access levels follow the role.
Per-service commission
Set a rate per staff member and service; completed appointments feed earnings automatically.
Earnings reporting
Month-end figures appear in a single report, and staff track their own earnings from their panel.
Email invitations
Invite staff by email and they create their own login.
Assignment by location
In multi-location businesses, staff are assigned to a branch and reports can be compared across sites.
The second benefit of transparent commission
Automating commission looks at first like a time saving. Not wrestling with a spreadsheet at month end is certainly worth something, but the real benefit lies elsewhere.
A staff member who can see their earnings in real time works harder to fill their own quiet hours. Transparency turns commission from an abstract promise into concrete feedback.
The same transparency ends the argument: when the calculation is visible, month-end objections largely disappear.
Why permissions matter
Making all of a business's data available to everyone is neither safe nor practical. What a staff member needs is their own calendar and the records assigned to them.
AsentTime uses role-based permissions. Staff see their own appointments and earnings but not the business's full financial data, other people's earnings or system settings.
This also protects data when someone leaves: closing their access closes the limited view they had, while the business's records stay intact.
The staff member's own panel
Staff log in with their own account and see their daily appointment list, weekly calendar and earnings summary.
The same information is available through the mobile app, with instant notifications for new bookings and changes.
This reduces the communication load on the team: "what time do I start tomorrow?" and "how much have I earned this month?" are answered on their own screen.
