Mobile Start-Work Onboarding
GreenSlate’s Start Work workflow moves crew onboarding from paper forms into a guided digital process. Team members can enter personal and project information, complete required forms, and reuse details when they join another production. Keeping the opening steps together makes it easier to begin work from a set, trailer, or home office without carrying a folder of paperwork.
The workflow also supports digital signatures and a record of activity around each submission. Administrators can use project settings and approval steps to keep starts moving, while employees have one place to revisit information that applies across projects. It is a practical fit for productions that need repeatable onboarding with fewer manual handoffs and clearer records.
Timecards and Approval Tracking
Timecards are central to GreenSlate’s mobile workday. Crew members can enter hours while they are on set or away from the production office, submit the card to an approver, and return to check its status. That sequence keeps a routine task visible instead of leaving hours in notes or waiting for a desktop session.
Approval flows can be tailored by administrators, including status views and batch approvals for teams handling many submissions. The same account can connect time entries with project information, giving producers and payroll staff a clearer path from a completed card to the next review step. GreenSlate suits teams that need mobile time tracking without losing oversight.
Payroll Records and Tax Documents
GreenSlate brings everyday payroll records into the same account used for production work. Employees can review pay stubs, check copies, timecards, tax documents, and personal information after signing in, while direct-deposit settings can be managed for the projects they support. Digital access is useful when a crew member needs a document on location or wants to print a record later.
The platform also keeps reusable information available across projects and can provide earlier access to eligible U.S. tax documents. Instead of searching through paper mail or separate files, users can return to one organized workspace for recurring payroll questions. These tools are aimed at GreenSlate organizations rather than casual personal finance tracking.
Purchase Orders and Crew Expenses
GreenSlate extends mobile production administration into purchase orders and crew expenses. Users can prepare a purchase order, enter vendor and amount details, attach supporting files, add notes, and send the request through the project’s approval path. Approvers can review the same record remotely, helping a production keep purchasing decisions connected to the underlying documentation.
The app’s expense tools also include access to receipts, invoices, check copies, and GreenSlate prepaid-card activity when those services are enabled for an account. Centralized records make it easier to find supporting material during a busy production day, while customized views help teams focus on the information relevant to a project. This workflow is most useful for crews, producers, and accounting staff working inside an existing GreenSlate organization.
