Set your shared tablet PIN

Choose the four-to-six-digit PIN that says who you are on the kitchen’s shared tablet, change it, or have a forgotten one reset.

Who can do this: Everyone sets their own PIN. Resetting someone else’s takes the “Edit staff details and where they work” permission: Location Managers and Admins by default; a Supervisor can be given it.

Web and iPhoneChecked

On this page

Your PIN is how a shared tablet knows a check was done by you. You choose it yourself, in your own profile. Nobody else can see it or choose it for you.

On the phone

  1. Open Me, then Edit profile.
  2. Under Shared tablet PIN, press Set PIN.
  3. Type a PIN of four to six digits under New PIN, then the same again under Again.
  4. It says PIN set, and the profile shows Set with the date.

On the web

Go to My profile

  1. Open My profile from the sidebar.
  2. Under Shared tablet PIN, press Set PIN.
  3. Type the PIN under New PIN and Again, and press Save PIN.
  4. It says PIN set.

Change it, or if you have forgotten it

Go to the same place and press Change PIN. You are not asked for the old one, so a forgotten PIN is replaced the same way.

Reset someone else’s PIN

If a PIN has been seen by someone else or is locked, a manager can take it away. On the web, open the person from the staff list; their panel shows Shared tablet PIN with PIN set, Locked or No PIN. Press Reset PIN. It says PIN reset, and the person sets a new one in their own profile.

If it doesn’t work

“4–6 digits”
The PIN is too short or too long.
“Not one digit repeated”
A PIN such as 1111 is refused. Choose another.
“Not a run of digits”
A PIN that counts straight up or down, such as 1234 or 4321, is refused.
“Doesn’t match” or “PINs didn’t match”
The second entry was different from the first. Type both again.
