Restrict Item Codes for SafeSite Users
Head contractor and subcontractor administrators can control which item codes are available to individual SafeSite users when they create electronic dockets.
Restricting item codes reduces the number of chargeable items a user needs to choose from. This makes it quicker to create a docket and reduces the risk of selecting the wrong item.
Note: When you create a new SafeSite user, all available item codes are assigned to the user by default. (All) appears next to the supplier name in the Item Codes field when all item codes for that supplier are assigned.
