Billiard Hall Staff & Coach Payouts on LOOP
Coach commissions ring per session against the coach's account, hall staff rosters are AI-generated from table demand, and tip pools sign on Zalo before payout.
How LOOP handles it
Rostering respects table-hour forecast (AI Table-Turn) so you don't overstaff Tuesday morning. Every coach has a rule set (per-hour, per-lesson, tiered by student level). Payout ledger is per-coach with Zalo e-signature.
The specific pains here
#1Coach commissions calculated on a paper notebook — disputes every month.
How LOOP solves it: Coach Payout Ledger auto-records every coached session with the coach's rule set.
#2Overstaffed Tuesday mornings burn labour cost.
How LOOP solves it: AI Roster sizes staff to AI Table-Turn Forecast — target labour < 18% of revenue.
#3Coach no-shows leave paying players without a lesson.
How LOOP solves it: AI Coach Reliability Score flags at-risk coaches 24h ahead; back-up coach auto-offered.
#4Front-desk tip pool is contentious.
How LOOP solves it: Digital Tip Ledger requires every staff Zalo signature before payout.
