Questions
Can each location add its own checks?

Can I print the opening checklist?
Yes. Export the flow as an SOP document or a PDF and put it in the back office.
How do I see how long opening takes?
Each step in the template has an active time. Change the minutes to match your store and Wavelength adds them up.
