Foreman sign-off
The daily foreman sign-off process — verifying crew hours, equipment usage, materials consumed, and work completed before the data flows into timesheets.
Foreman sign-off is the quality gate between raw field data and official records. At the end of each day, the designated foreman reviews the crew's time entries, confirms equipment usage, and verifies work completion. Sign-off catches errors at the source — before they propagate into timesheets, cost reports, and payroll.
When to sign off
Sign off at the end of each working day, before leaving the site. The field app prompts the foreman when all crew members have clocked out. If workers forget to clock out, the foreman can close their entries as part of the sign-off process. There's a configurable deadline for sign-off (set in Settings > Company > Field) — after the deadline, the dispatcher is notified of any unsigned days.
The sign-off flow
- Tap Sign-Off on the foreman's field app home screen
- Review each crew member's time entry — start time, end time, break time, total hours
- Correct any errors (wrong clock-out time, missing break) with a tap-to-edit
- Confirm equipment used on the block — add or remove from the default list
- Confirm materials consumed (from the daily report)
- Verify block completion percentage
- Tap Sign Off — the day's records are locked and flow into timesheets
What sign-off locks
After sign-off, time entries for that day are finalized. Workers can't edit their own hours. Only dispatchers and admins can override a signed-off entry, and any changes are recorded with a reason. This protects the integrity of the data — what the foreman verified is what goes to payroll.
