Viewing menu item stock statuses

Important

This feature is automatically turned on for Toast locations that are part of the shift at a glance beta.

The Today’s Shift screen allows staff to easily view the inventory status of menu items. When your employee clocks in for their shift, the Today’s Shift screen opens to display all out of stock and low stock items. When a menu item is marked out of stock or shows low inventory (an inventory count of less than five) on either the Toast Now app or on the Toast POS, the item’s inventory status is updated on the Today’s Shift screen on the Toast POS.

You can access the Today’s Shift screen on the Toast POS by navigating to My Account > Today’s Shift or through the overflow menu on the following screens: Table Service, Quick Order, Fast Service, Payment Terminal, and Orders Hub.

Note

If the Today's Shift screen is open on the POS, you must close and reopen the screen to see the latest stock updates.
