Roles and permissions

The right workspace
for the responsibility.

SiteSight does not give every account the same navigation. Role, individual permissions and designated Sites determine what appears—and final checks protect direct routes as well.

Access at a glance

Plot control starts at Supervisor.

Individual permissions can narrow what an eligible role may do, but they cannot bypass the minimum role required for plot cards or progress.

This table describes the product’s built-in role floor. A user can also be restricted to one or more designated Sites and a smaller set of individual permissions.

Supervisor and above

Only Director, Contracts Manager, Site Manager and Supervisor roles can open plot cards, see plot progress or change a work stage. Site access and the relevant action permission are still checked.

Operators and subcontractors

Subcontractor is recorded as an optional classification on an Operator account. Both receive the same focused My Time workspace and cannot open or update plot cards.

Accounts delegation

Accounts starts without shift review, correction, timesheet approval or overtime approval. Only a Director can deliberately add those permissions; old saved flags are ignored without that delegation.

The public demonstration includes fictional accounts for Director, Contracts Manager, Site Manager, Supervisor, Quantity Surveyor, Accounts, Operator and Read Only. Use the same fictional password shown on the sign-in screen.
