Daily progress reports

Record site work, submit it for review and share an approved update.

Tell the day’s story with evidence

A DPR brings together completed work, planned work, weather, stage progress, attendance, material usage, deliveries, equipment, issues and safety notes. It complements the detailed registers. “Completed 18 metres of boundary wall” is more useful than “Good progress”.

  1. 01

    Start the correct day

    Open Daily Reports, select project and report date, and prepare a draft. Check prefilled attendance, stages and deliveries against site facts.

  2. 02

    Complete and submit

    Check stage percentages and material units, add issues and photographs, and keep internal remarks separate. Save and submit the current draft for review.

  3. 03

    Respond to review

    The reviewer approves or returns it with a reason. Correct a returned report through its revision workflow and resubmit, preserving the earlier review trail.

What approval changes

Only the current submitted report can be reviewed, and only one approved report is allowed per project and date. Approval can apply stage-progress entries, so check them before signing off. When auto-post DPR consumption is enabled, approval can also create and post material usage. When it is off, a DPR material line is not proof of a stock deduction. Check Inventory Consumption and its source reference before entering the same usage manually.

Daily reporting and review

A submitted report is reviewed. Returned reports are corrected through a new revision before approval.

Share the approved current revision

The portal shows current approved reports marked client-visible for its assigned project. The visibility switch does not publish a draft. Internal remarks and sensitive rates are excluded from the portal presentation; review attachments before sharing. If a report is missing, check project, revision, approval, visibility and portal availability. Use the report’s PDF action for a formatted copy; see PDF downloads.
