HungerRush POS

HungerRush integrates with 7shifts to sync actual sales, labor, and team data across both systems.

Things to Know

• Access to this feature may require an upgrade from your existing plan.
• Breaks are not supported with the HungerRush integration. If needed, breaks can be tracked using 7punches.

4. Click Submit.
5. Grant access between HungerRush and 7shifts.
6. Copy your unique token and share it with the HungerRush Onboarding member who will assist you with completing setup.
7. To connect multiple accounts, repeat the steps above.

Actual Sales and Forecasting

Once your integration has been activated, your real-time sales data will be enabled by default. 7shifts will also use those Actual Sales values to populate Projected Sales, allowing you to create schedules based on those projections. These will become more accurate over time as more data is available.

After activating your integration, please note that sales projections may not appear immediately. It can take approximately 1–2 weeks from the activation date for sales projections to become visible, covering up to four weeks into the future. These will become more accurate over time as more data is available.

You can manually import sales data for more immediate projections. To do this, import hourly sales each day or individual receipts consistently. You can learn more about sales projections here.

• Both 7shifts and HungerRush must be configured with the same time zone and workday hours (5:00 AM to 5:00 AM).
• Ensure all receipts are closed at the end of the night. Unclosed receipts can result in a change in receipt dates when payments are cleared on subsequent days, causing sales discrepancies.
• It may take a few hours for the system to bring in previous sales. If they do not appear initially, check back in a few hours.
• It takes approximately 1–2 weeks of data collection for initial sales projections to appear.
• 7shifts will sync sales data into the Dashboard, Manager Log Book, Actuals Report, and the Labor Budget Tool.

Actual Labor and Tips

We integrate with HungerRush for Actual Labor. This means that your actual labor costs will be pulled into 7shifts. Once enabled, your actual labor costs will be displayed on the Dashboard allowing you to compare Sales vs. Labor. You'll see the labor numbers update on the Dashboard on the day you enabled HungerRush actual Labor.

• Time punch edits should be made directly in your POS to avoid data conflicts. If you have enabled 3rd Party Punches, edit the punch in 7shifts instead.

Including Tips in Payroll (Coming Soon!)

The HungerRush integration supports the following tip sources:

• CC Tips
• Auto-gratuity
• Cash Tips
• Declared Tips

The HungerRush integration supports automated tip collection for use with 7shifts Tip Pooling. This data feeds into custom pooling rules based on hours worked, points, or percentages.

To ensure these tips are included in your reports and payroll (7shifts Payroll and external exports), you must configure your tip calculation settings. Follow the steps in Tips: Include Tip Calculations.

Schedule Enforcement

Schedule Enforcement ensures staff can only clock into HungerRush when they are scheduled to work, allowing you to control and reduce labor costs.

Shifts are automatically synced from 7shifts to HungerRush. When an employee attempts to clock in, HungerRush validates whether that employee is scheduled to work. If the employee is scheduled, they are allowed to clock in. If the employee is not scheduled to work at that time, HungerRush will not allow them to clock in unless a manager overrides.

Integration Warnings in Time Clocking

Once your POS labor is syncing into 7shifts, you will see a Warnings tab when reviewing your current pay period. This tab highlights punches missing a role in your POS/7shifts labor data that may need attention before running payroll.

These warnings appear directly in Time Clocking > Pay Periods > Warnings, helping you quickly identify and fix issues with labor data flowing in from the POS.

You can resolve most issues right from the Warnings tab, and you can still close your pay period even if some warnings remain.
