The crew calendar close up: three weeks of October 2026 with tasks from five jobs as coloured bars and today marked.

How work plan & crew capacity works in WorkHoist

7 steps
  1. Put the right people on the job

    Open a job and add the people who work on it. Field crew are added for you the moment they are given a task on it.

  2. Book hours per week on each job

    Each job gets a staffing card: who is on it and how many hours a week they are booked. The card shows Fully Staffed once the field hours are covered.

  3. See who has room, day by day

    Four tiles sum up the team: utilisation, who is overbooked, who has capacity and the hours scheduled. Below, every person has a row of booked hours against an 8-hour day; open a row to see their tasks and drag one to someone with room.

  4. Every job on one calendar

    The company work plan for October 2026: tasks from five jobs as coloured bars across the month.

    The work plan shows every task across every job by month, week or day, coloured by job. Filter by job, person or status, and drag a task to move it.

  5. Everyone sees their own list

    My Work: open tasks, due this week, overdue and hours this week, above five Hartley Kitchen Remodel tasks with their due dates.

    My Work gives each person their tasks across all jobs, with what is open, due this week and overdue, and the hours they have logged this week.

  6. Hours logged against the task

    Open a task and log the hours with a note. Field supervisors and electricians log hours on the tasks assigned to them, and they are free seats.

  7. The hours actually worked

    Logged Time over 28 days: hours per person, with the share traceable to a task.

    Logged Time shows the hours each person logged over 7, 28 or 90 days, split by job and by task.
