Cross-shop Staff Transfer
Also known as: Beautician shop change · Staff inter-shop migration
A self-service flow for a beautician moving from one MeiYe Zhan shop to another. The original shop's historical records remain intact; the new shop sends an invite link; the beautician clicks to join.
Full definition
Cross-shop staff transfer is what happens when a beautician leaves one shop and joins another. In the beauty business, people move around a lot — staff switch shops because of closures, lease changes, pay, or where they live. Many systems get stuck here: once the original shop deactivates someone, their account is still tied to the old shop and they can't join a new one; but if you simply delete everything, all their past performance records disappear. MeiYe Zhan turns this into something the staff member can handle on their own: the original shop deactivates them, the app notices automatically the next time they open it, releases them from the old shop, and guides them to set up at the new one. The new shop just sends an invite link — one tap and they're in, with all their history intact.
Why this concept matters
Shops are small; staff move often. A stuck transfer flow hurts everyone: the old shop fields support tickets, the new shop's admin spends manual time, the staff member's account is broken. Automating the flow removes friction so shops don't need to compete adversarially over employee transfers.
How MeiYe Zhan handles it
Three coordinated steps: (1) Original shop action: the owner goes to settings → staff management → switches the staff member to deactivated. It takes effect immediately; the staff member can no longer access this shop's data, but their performance and attendance history is fully preserved. (2) The deactivated person is detected automatically: the next time the deactivated staff member opens the app, the system notices they've been deactivated by the original shop, automatically releases them from that shop, sends them to the join-a-new-shop onboarding screen, and shows a short notice. (3) New shop invite: the new owner generates an invite link, the staff member opens it and signs in, and the system adds them to the new shop. The history stays with the original shop; at the new shop the staff member starts from zero.
Concrete example
Beautician A worked 3 years at shop X with NT$500,000 cumulative performance. X owner deactivates A → on next app open A is auto-cleared and lands on /onboarding with banner "you've been removed from your previous shop; if you have another invite link, open it to join." Next week shop Y owner sends an invite → A clicks, logs in, auto-joins Y. A's NT$500,000 history stays in X's reports (X can still view), but at Y, A's performance starts at NT$0.
