👷‍♂️ Crews Tab: Customization, Clarity & Crew-Level Planning

📘 What Is the Crews Tab?

• Create preset crews with clear names

• Assign them to divisions

• Designate whether they are Frontline or Admin teams

• Use icons and naming conventions to keep everything clear during dispatch

Pro Tip: This setup saves time every single morning. No more typing the same crew names from scratch — just assign them to the day.

🔧 How to Use It

1. Click the Crews tab in the left-hand menu

2. Click “Add Crew”

3. Give your crew a name — be as specific or general as needed

4. Assign it to a Division

5. Choose Crew Type: Frontline or Admin

6. Click Save — that’s it!

• Use icons or initials in the crew name (for visual sorting)

• Filter crews by division

• Edit or update crews seasonally or as your org evolves

🔄 Fully Customizable for Your Operation

Examples of Common Crew Names:

• Mowing 1

• Hardscape 2

• Irrigation Service

• Irrigation Install

• Fleet Bay 1

• Snow | Loader Crew

• Admin | Office Staff

• Project Management | Irr/Turf

Best Practice: Use clear, readable names and keep them consistent across seasons. Your dispatchers (and crew members) will thank you.

🧠 Why It Matters

• ✅ Faster dispatching every day

• ✅ Clearer internal communication about who’s working and where

• ✅ Seasonal flexibility (easily create snow crews, summer crews, etc.)

• ✅ Increased visibility into who’s active, who’s not, and what teams are available

📈 Crew-Level Visibility

• Managers can quickly see who is scheduled

• Crew Leaders can recognize their teams

• Employees are less confused or misassigned

• Divisions stay organized and structured

Cultural Bonus: Naming crews clearly gives a sense of identity and structure to your frontline — they know where they belong and what’s expected.
