Day Information
In here, you learn how to enter the workdays' daily information, the NMBs and how to add screenshots and other images. For each day, the responsible trade (tech crew) must enter the required information individually.
The left panel of the application is used to enter all day-related information in a predefined format. This information must be entered separately for each trade and can later be printed collectively on the daily report for any desired date.
Components
Attendance
You can add an arbitrary amount of attendance entries per workday in your construction report.
