The team, roles and access

Tredco is built for a crew, not just for the owner. The whole company uses the same package and credit pot, and adding people costs nothing extra. Everyone works in the same projects — but each person sees and does what their job requires, no more.

Add your crew

Everything about your people lives under Employees in the settings:

Adding someone new to the crew:

Passwords are managed by each person from their own account — they don't live in the app. Inviting, changing roles and enabling or closing access are things only the owner and the office do; each user manages their own profile, notifications and consents.

The role follows the job

Tap Roles at the top of the Employees panel to see what each role can do:

Owner — you. Always has everything: subscription, rights and deleting the company.

Office — runs the office: invites and manages employees, company settings and the accounting — on top of everything a team lead can do on jobs.

Team lead — runs jobs on site: projects with economy, quotes from draft to sending, the crew's hours and the customers.

Member — the tradesperson on the crew, the default choice: works on projects and quotes, logs own hours, adds photos and notes.

Accountant — internal or external: full accounting with invoicing, payroll and reports, plus insight into projects and quotes.

You choose a role by what the person actually does — not by ticking a list of switches. Every role carries a short description of who it's for, so you get it right the first time.

Who can see and do what

Behind every role sits a checklist of what it can do — send quotes, see project economy, see accounting and reports, and the rest. That checklist is the starting point, and your company can adjust it: decide that everyone with the Team lead role can send quotes, and it applies to all of them.

If one person needs something beyond their role, you make an exception for exactly that person — a little more, or a little less — without touching anyone else. You speak in plain words ("Kari should be able to send quotes", "Jonas shouldn't see project economy"); Tredco translates it into the right access.

The owner signs off

Only the owner changes access. Every change arrives as a short card before anything is written: who it concerns, what they gain and lose, and what was already in place. You confirm — then it applies. The same principle as everywhere in Tredco: the agent proposes, you sign off.

When someone is set inactive

Sometimes a crew member needs to step out of the company for a while — someone who leaves, someone away for a long stretch, or an account you want to rest. You set the person inactive rather than deleting anything: the work stays untouched, and you can let them back in whenever you like.

In Employees each person has a status — Active, Inactive or Archived. To pause someone active, choose Set to inactive; to let an inactive person back in, Set to active. The owner and the office do this — and you can't set your own account inactive.

As long as someone is inactive in the company, its work doesn't show for them. If they open the company — or follow a link straight into it — they meet a page of its own instead of projects and conversations: "You're inactive at the company", with a note that the people who manage employees there can set them active again. The page hasn't removed anything; it just says why it's quiet. If the person belongs to other companies, they can carry straight on there — Continue in another company, or Show all companies for the full list. If they're not active at any company right now, it says so, and they can manage their login or sign out.

In the company switcher at the bottom of the sidebar it reads "You're inactive here" under the company name, so it's clear where the person has no access at the moment. If Tredco opened another company because the one they were last in was unavailable, the app says so at startup.

More people on the team cost nothing extra; the packages are on pricing. Not started yet? Begin with getting started.
