Create Productivity Entries

Background

The Productivity section allows you to track the material received on site and the material installed. This section displays if there are any approved subcontracts or purchase orders utilizing the Unit/Quantity accounting method, allowing you to track installation progress against line items in the contract.

    • To create entries: 'Standard' or 'Admin' level permissions on the project's Daily Log tool.
      Note: Users must be able to view the relevant contract in order to add it to the Productivity entry.

    • To create pending entries as a collaborator: 'Read Only' or 'Standard' permissions to the project's Daily Log tool with the 'Collaborator Entry Only' granular permission enabled on your permissions template.
