Staff (non-users) are people who work on site but do not sign in to Superwise. Examples are a security guard, a mason or a supervisor of a contractor. You register them here so that their presence on site can be recorded. People who sign in are users. Add them under Users.

The screen is called Site Staff in its page title. The entry in the left menu is Staff (Non-users).

Before you start

  • Add the projects the staff work on. See Projects.
  • If the staff belong to a contractor, add the contractor as an organization. See Organizations.
  • If you want to link the staff to a resource, such as a labour type, that resource must be a labour resource.
  • If the person also signs in to Superwise, create the user first. See Users.
