Access and Visibility
Daily Logs are workspace-specific.
Only users within the same workspace as the company that created the log can view it.
Daily Logs are not shared across workspaces.
What Daily Logs Capture
Daily Logs are created within a project to capture daily site activity, such as:
Weather and site conditions
Work performed by companies (Work Log)
Safety incidents and safety violations
Delays and site operations (visitors, equipment, waste, etc.)
Notes, photos, and supporting documents
The goal of Daily Logs is to provide a daily record of on-site activity, issues, and conditions to help teams monitor progress and support project closeout.
Process
1. Configure Daily Logs
Before creating Daily Logs on a project, configure the available categories and delay types.
a. Navigate to Project Settings → Daily Log.
b. Under Delay Types, add the delay options that should appear in the dropdown when recording delays on a log.
c. Under Log Categories, toggle each category on or off based on your project needs. For example, an Owner may disable Safety sections if they are not required. Only enabled categories will appear when creating a Daily Log.
d. Save your changes.
2. Create a Daily Log
