The StyleDesk app for owners and managers

What owners and managers see in the StyleDesk app: today's numbers and alerts, sales reports, the team and each person's performance, and your plan.

The app gives owners and managers the salon's day at a glance, wherever you are. Sign in with your portal login (see using the app at work). Anyone whose role can see sales reports lands on these screens, so managers see what owners see.

The tabs

Along the bottom: Home, Reports, Appointments, Checkout, Team and More. Appointments and Checkout work as they do for the front desk and are laid out for a tablet, so they are easiest to use on one.

Home

At the top are the branch switcher, a bell and the sign-out icon. With more than one branch, tap a branch (or, with more than three, the branch name) to switch. Every figure follows the branch you pick.

  • Revenue today: finalized, fully paid bills so far today, with the change against a baseline. Tap the change to switch between vs yesterday and vs last week.
  • Appointments: appointments done today, with how many are upcoming and how many were no-shows.
  • Cash collected: cash payments taken today, less cash refunds. It is not a till count.
  • Needs attention: the branch's alerts.

Pull down to refresh. A salon with no activity yet today shows Get started.

Alerts

The bell shows how many alerts there are. Tap it to open Alerts: products running low on stock, and walk-ins who have waited more than 15 minutes without a stylist. The most serious come first. All clear means there is nothing to deal with. Alerts need the Pro or Business plan.

Reports

  1. Open Reports and choose Today, 7 days or This month, or tap the date button to pick your own range.
  2. Choose Sales (day by day), Services, Products or Staff.
  3. The top card shows Revenue, the number of sales and the change vs previous period. Below are a chart and the ranked list; tap Load more for the rest.

On Staff, tap a person to see their Revenue, Sales and Share of total for the same dates. Reports need the Pro or Business plan.

Team

Team lists the branch's staff with grade, job title, branch and status (Active, On leave or Terminated). Type in Search staff to find someone and tap a card to open them. For 7 days, 30 days, This month or your own dates, the staff page shows:

  • Revenue, Sales, Commission and Effective rate (commission as a share of revenue).
  • Appointments split into Booked, In progress, Done, No-show and Cancelled.
  • Attendance: hours worked and days present.
  • Time off: their requests. Pending ones have Approve and Reject.

The performance figures need the Pro or Business plan. Adding, editing and archiving staff is done in the portal (see adding staff).

Clients

The owner app has no client list. To find a client while booking, search by name or phone in the Client step of New booking. For profiles, history and changes, use the portal (see finding customers).

More

  • Your name, email, role, salon and branch, and Change password.
  • The subscription card: your plan, its status (such as Trial, Active or Payment overdue), days left, and staff and branches used against your limits. It is for reading only; renewal happens outside the app.
  • Clock in / out & history, if your login is linked to a staff record.
  • Appearance, Help & support, Privacy policy, Terms of service, the app version, and Sign out.
Note. A banner at the top warns when a trial ends within 7 days or a payment is overdue. If it says Your subscription isn't active. StyleDesk is read-only until it's renewed., you can still look at everything but cannot make changes. Tap Contact support for help.
