Choose the work you need to do

Your job title and your SiteClara role may be different. A premises manager might need both administrator access in the portal and a supervisor role on their phone.

Access follows the building and organisation

A supervisor at one building does not automatically supervise another. A provider sees its own work and permitted unrouted jobs, not another company's private work. At an owner's building, the services an own-staff person covers can also determine their jobs.

A provider that works at a building does not automatically administer it. Shared sites separate site administration, payment, each company's work and the people invited to read reports.

You can have more than one kind of access

Administrator and supervisor is a supported combination. Building-manager phone access and report-reader portal access can also belong to the same person. Each must be set up separately. Follow the combined-roles guide for the exact steps and limits.
