Site engineer

What a site engineer does in Superwise each day, the six screens to use most, and the order to follow on the first day.

Who can use it
People whose role lets them add site records. Each screen needs its own permission.

A site engineer works on site and records what happens there. In Superwise you ask for materials, record what arrives, record the workers and the cash spent, log the progress of tasks, and raise problems.

What you do each day

  • Log the progress of the tasks that were worked on.
  • Record the materials that arrived at site.
  • Record the labour that worked on site.
  • Record small cash spending.
  • Ask for the materials that the next days need.
  • Raise an issue when something is wrong.

The screens you use most

The left menu with Site Reports open. Mark 1 is Material Deliveries, mark 2 is Labour Records and mark 3 is Petty Cash.
