The Manager Log Book is a secure communication tool exclusively available to Admins, Managers, and Assistant Managers. It operates like a shared diary or journal in your 7shifts account, and serves as a written record to help your management team track business operations (i.e., performance reviews, challenges, achievements, future plans and other relevant information).

In this article you'll learn how to delete a comment or entry in the Manager Log Book.

Prerequisites

⚠️ Managers and Assistant Managers can only access the Manager Log Book and receive email summaries for the Locations they are assigned to.

⚠️ Admins can create and manage categories on the web app. If you think you need additional categories, please reach out to your Admin.

⚠️ Employees do not have access to the Manager Log Book.
