What information you can see

You see only the jobs and tasks assigned to you, their sites and documents, and your own time. You can't see customer records, prices, quotes, invoices, other workers' tasks or other businesses' data. Your manager sees what you record.

Screenshots show a fictional sample business. Your own screens show your data.
