THE SUBS HUB

§ PORTALS + SUBS4 min READUPDATED 2026-08

Your control center for subcontractors: roster, messages, performance, marketplace, documents, compliance, receipts, and invoices.

The SUBS tab is where you manage every subcontractor relationship — who is on your roster, what they have submitted, whether their paperwork is current, and what they are owed. It is organized as a row of sub-tabs, each a focused workspace.

WHERE: Masthead → SUBS

§The sub-tabs

Sub-tabWhat it is for
ROSTEREvery subcontractor connected to your company.
INVITESSend and track portal invites (see "Invite a subcontractor").
MESSAGESThreads with your subs — the other end of the Messages tab in their portal.
PERFORMANCEHow your subs are performing.
MARKETPLACEFind subcontractors.
DOCSDocuments subs have submitted — COIs, W-9s, licenses.
COMPLIANCECompliance standing at a glance, driven by document expiry.
RECEIPTSReceipts subs have captured and submitted.
INVOICESTwo lists: sub invoices awaiting approval, and PAYOUT REQUESTS — what a sub asked to be paid from a job (APPROVE → MARK PAID, or REJECT with a reason). The sub is notified of each decision.
ACCESSYour join code, and the access requests subs filed with it — approve to add them to the roster and link their login.

§Where sub submissions go

Nothing a sub submits acts on its own. Documents land on DOCS (approve = verified, with expiry tracking from then on), receipts on RECEIPTS, and money on INVOICES — both their invoices and their payout requests. Each decision moves the item along the submitted → approved → paid flow the sub sees in their Payments tab, and tells them.

§Putting subs to work

Assignment happens on the work itself rather than in this hub: work orders take a crew or subcontractor assignment, tasks have a SUBCONTRACTOR segment in their ASSIGN picker, and invoices offer 📋 SEND TO SUB. The SUBS hub is where the resulting paperwork and conversations come home.

◆ TIP
Make COMPLIANCE a weekly stop. Sub documents carry expiry highlighting, and the nightly compliance check notifies you and the sub at 30, 14, 7, 3 and 1 days before a verified or pending document expires, and on the day.
