Use the guided setup

The guided setup is a do-it-with-you wizard that gets the essentials into Atteny in a few minutes. Instead of hopping between settings pages, it collects your first location, your job roles and hourly pay, and your team invitations — all on one screen, one step at a time.

1. 1

   Open the guided setup

   On your dashboard, find the Getting started card and select Run guided setup. You can also go straight to it at /setup.

2. 2

   Add your first location

   On the Location step, enter a Location name — for example, Downtown Café — plus City and Country. This is where your team works. You can add more locations later, so one is enough to start.

   

3. 3

   Set roles and hourly pay

   On the Roles & pay step, add each job role with its Hours/mo and Rate/hr — for example, Server at €12. Select Add another role for as many as you need. This turns clocked hours into pay, so figures show up across your reports and timesheets.

4. 4

   Invite your team

   On the Team step, type each person's email and pick their role — Employee, Manager or Admin. You can also set their role type, location and hourly rate, or leave those blank for now. Select Add another person to invite more.

5. 5

   Send invites and finish

   Select Send invites & finish. Each person gets an email in their own language inviting them to install the app and join. You'll see a summary of everything you just created.

If you're on the free Starter plan

Starter includes 1 location and up to 5 people. If you've already reached a limit, the wizard swaps the form for a short notice and lets you continue — it simply won't create anything beyond your plan. To add more, upgrade to Pro from Settings → Plan & billing.

What's next

Once your team accepts their invites, you can build your first schedule and assign shifts. Want to fine-tune what's switched on first? See Choose your features. For more ways to add people — including from the Employees page — read Invite your team.

You can reopen the guided setup any time from the Getting started card on your dashboard, or by visiting /setup directly.
