Progress is the percent of a task that is done. Each time a site engineer adds progress to a task, Superwise stores one entry with the date, the percent and a description. The Progress Log lists all these entries for the project.

You can also use this screen to add the progress of many tasks together at the end of the day. This is the Bulk Add table.
