Permissions

Always remember to ensure the correct people have the appropriate permissions to access your Company Settings. This can be done per individual or by applying Permission Templates.

To create Notices and Siteflows, users will need Edit permissions for Company Settings

With access to manage and create SiteFlows, you can easily create a sequence of tasks, or events, simplifying the user experience for your subs. SiteFlows can be easily accessed through a QR code, making it convenient and efficient for keeping everyone on track.

Before you start creating your SiteFlows, you will need to have your Siteflow Notices created. These notices serve as the building blocks of your Flows and will guide your subs through the required steps for each project.


What are Siteflow Notices?

Siteflow Notices are different types of action blocks that can be used to create your SiteFlow. Each type of Notice serves a specific purpose, whether it's attaching media or receiving important information from your subs. Here's a breakdown of the different types of Notices and how to use them in your SiteFlow:

Media

The Media block can be used to attach photos, videos, or PDFs for your subs to review. This is a great way to visually communicate any important information that your team needs to see.

For every Siteflow Notice, select a Background Color for extra customization!

Text

The Text block is a great way to call attention to important information for your subs. You can use this block to provide instructions or reminders for specific tasks.

Note: When a file has been uploaded to the Flow by a user not associated with a Company within the SiteMax system, it will be visible within the Project's Documents section in a folder labeled Siteflow Document Uploads.

When a file has been uploaded to the Flow by a user who is associated with a Company within the SiteMax system, it will be saved inside the Siteflow Document Uploads folder as a subfolder labeled with the Company name.

Last Report

The Last Report block is useful for showing the latest submitted form for a specific Report Type. Use this notice to have subs confirm they have reviewed the latest completed report PDFs.

To add a Last Report block, simply click on the "Last Report" option when creating your SiteFlow, and select the desired Report Type.

Check the "Show based on status" checkbox to show the latest report with the specified status.

Project Documents View

The Project Document View block allows users to open documents in a project folder with files being updated in real time.

Users will be able to click into the documents from the project folder directly in the SiteFlow. The PDF, image, or video will open once clicked!

In the folder section, while creating this notice, type the name of the project folder where the file is located. For example, if the folder's name is "Documents" this is exactly how it should be entered when creating the notice block, as the field is also case-sensitive.

To ensure the notice will show files from a project's folder, copy the folder's name and paste it into the Notice's "Folder" field.

It's important to note that the system won't consider folders within other folders.

Siteflow Logs

Every Notice action is automatically recorded in the system and stored in the Siteflow Logs. These logs can be exported as PDF or CSV files for easy sharing.

  2. Start by selecting the Notice Type

  3. Select a background color for the Notice
