This article will walk you through what Notices are, how to create them, and some handy tips for managing them efficiently.

What are Notices?

Notices are a tool within SiteMax Systems that allow you to communicate important information of a project. Whether it's a shift in schedule, a safety alert, a form that needs attention, or a quality concern, Notices serve as a means to disseminate these updates effectively.

Creating Project Notices

Before you dive in, make sure you have the necessary permissions: "View," "Create," "Edit," and "Manage" for Notices. Here's a step-by-step guide:

  1. Navigate to Company Settings: Find the Modules section and click on the Notices tab.

  2. Click on the "+ Create Notice" icon: This initiates the process of adding a new project notice.

  3. Select Type of Notice: Choose from options like Information, Site Bulletin, and Safety Bulletin to categorize your notice.

  4. Set the Priority: Define how urgent or critical the notice is.

  5. Populate Layout Fields: Add a title, subtitle, text, and any additional notes that convey the information effectively.

  6. Attach a Report: Associate any relevant reports for easy access.

  7. Add Attachments or Images: Include any necessary PDFs, images, or spec books.

  8. Configure Notice Settings: Specify which users and projects should receive the notice. This is where User Titles, Projects, and QR Workflow options come into play.

    • User Titles: Tailor who sees the notice by adding specific User Titles.

    • Projects: Choose where the notice should appear on the Notice Board.

    • QR Workflow: Customize options related to QR workflows.

  9. Click Save: Ensure all your changes are retained.

Note: All Users can view project notices when assigned to them. Only Full Users can edit and manage notices

Bulk Editing Notices

Streamlining your process is a breeze with bulk editing. Here's how:

  1. Select the Checkboxes: Choose the notices you want to edit.

  2. Click on the Actions Button: This reveals options for editing or deleting notices.

  3. Choose Edit: To apply changes to multiple projects at once.

  4. Define the Projects: Either enter project names or select the "All Active Projects" option.

Editing Project Notices

Fine-tuning your notices is simple. Follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to Company Settings: Look for the Notice Board section.

  2. Click on the Notice's Title: This allows you to view details and make edits.

  3. Modify Notice Details:

    • Type of Notice: Choose between Information, Site Bulletin, and Safety Bulletin.

    • Layout: Adjust title, subtitle, text, and notes to suit your needs.
