Employee Equipment Linking

You can link employees to equipment on the time sheet to show which employee operates each piece of equipment.

To use this feature, the assigned reason code for the employee’s work hours must have "Allow Equipment Linking" enabled in organization settings, and the employee reason code must be added at the project level.

You can specify the equipment-linking details when adding work hours on a daily plan.

On the Time Sheet tab of a daily plan, equipment linking is indicated by a color-coded bar on the tile of the crew member and the associated equipment.

In the Progress mobile application, employee and equipment links are indicated by dots.
