How to Set a Supervisor for a Location

Set a Supervisor for a stock location or job site in ToolWatch Cloud. Supervisors can get notifications for the locations they supervise.

Overview

Each location in ToolWatch can have a Supervisor. The Supervisor is the employee in charge of that location.

When you are set as the Supervisor of a location, you can get email or text notifications about it, such as when a pick ticket is requested or tools are transferred there. Many User Notifications only work for locations you supervise.
