Roster, Week plan and Hours

Booking crew and trades, what the crew see on the phone, and how hours come from the gate to approval.

Roster

Who is on which job each day of the week: people and trades as rows, Monday to Sunday as columns. Bookings start as drafts. Copy last week brings last week in as drafts. Publish week sends it to the crew's phones after a confirmation; only then do they see it.

Week plan and Today

What the crew see on the phone: where they are booked this week, and today's job with its tasks, documents and the days-without-an-accident board.

Hours

Hours come from the gate sign-in, not from typing.

  1. Each person scans the gate code to sign in and again to sign out.
  2. A 30 minute unpaid break comes off any day worked over 5 hours.
  3. A day not signed out shows as Open. Fix the times first with Fix times and a reason that stays on the record.
  4. Press Approve. The box shows the person, the week and the paid hours, and the button repeats the number.
  5. Export shows the timesheet PDF and the spreadsheet in the preview box before you download.

Approved the wrong week? Open the person and press Void approval. It needs a reason, and a manager unless you are one.

Why it works this way. Nothing is typed twice: the gate is the clock, so hours, costs and payroll all start from the same signed record.
