Create a Crew

Objective

To create a crew in the Crews tool.

Background

Laborers on job sites are managed into groups called crews so they can be more easily organized. Each crew consists of workers who perform one or more scope of work (such as a crew of concrete workers) and is lead by a Crew Lead, or Foreman, who is responsible for the crew’s work.

Things to Consider

  • Required User Permissions:

    • 'Standard' or 'Admin' level permissions on the project's Crews tool.
