How-to guides

Short guides in the order you'll need them, from adding your first ticket type to printing site cards.

New here? Work through guides 1 to 4 in order and the Overview will show who can and can't go to site. Each takes a few minutes. Start with guide 1.

Getting started

Set up the account once: what tickets exist, which ones each job needs, and who your operatives are.

  1. Set up your account in 10 minutes

    Create your account, then follow the setup checklist on the Overview. It ticks itself off as you go.

  2. Add your ticket types

    Tick the tickets your operatives hold from a ready-made list, or add your own. Everything else picks from this list.

  3. Set job roles and required tickets

    Say which tickets each job needs for site work. This is what decides whether someone is cleared.

Day to day

Record tickets and training as they come in, see who's red or amber, and choose who gets the 90, 30 and 7 day reminders.

  1. Record a ticket and upload a certificate

    Add a ticket with its expiry date and a copy of the certificate, then record that you checked the card is genuine.

  2. Record training, for one or a whole gang

    Record a toolbox talk for everyone who attended in one go, and choose which training is needed before anyone goes to site.

  3. Understand status: who can go to site

    What site ready, expiring, not cleared and incomplete mean, and why someone shows as each.

    Who can do this: Owner, Admin, Manager, Viewer

  4. Search for operatives in plain English

    Type who you need, like everyone whose NRSWA runs out before Christmas, and the list filters to match.

  5. Set up alerts and send a test

  6. Print site cards

    Give every operative a card with a QR code. Whoever scans it sees today's status, not a status printed months ago.
