Add a Worker (Android)

_{Also available on}

Objective

To add a worker to the Field Productivity tools Employee list using the Procore app on an Android mobile device.

Background

This feature allows users to add workers (e.g. craft workers, temp labourers and seasonal employees) without an email address to the Field Productivity tools Employee list. These workers do NOT need to have user accounts created for them in the Project or Company Directory.

Things to Consider

Required User Permissions:
- Admin level permissions on the Project level Directory tool.
  OR
- 'Standard' level permissions or higher on the project's Crews tool AND 'Read Only or 'Standard' level permissions on the Project level Directory tool with the 'Create Contacts' granular permission enabled on your permissions template.
Additional Information:
- The workers added will be displayed in the Employee List on the Crews and Timesheets tools.
- Once a worker has been added to the Crews tool in one project, a user can begin to enter that worker in another project and the First Name, Last Name and Employee ID of that worker will auto-complete.
- Workers can be viewed in the Project and Company level Directory tools in the 'Contacts' tabs. See What is a 'contact' in Procore and which project tools support the concept?
- You can configure what items are created with the quick create icon, see Configure Quick Create Settings.

Prerequisites

Add the Crews tool to the project using the Procore web application. See Add and Remove Project Tools.
