Assign work to a subcontractor and understand who manages their workers.

Each company is responsible for assigning its own workers. A main contractor cannot assign workers belonging to a subcontractor.

Open the job, go to Staffing and select Assign Company. Search for the subcontractor and select it. If the company is not in the list, select Add Contractor Company to invite it.

Assign Company lists the contractor companies you can choose from. You do not need a connection first. Workforce connects the two companies when you assign the work.

The subcontractor accepts the job and assigns workers. See Accept a job and assign workers.

Use the job tree to see the subcontractor’s workers. See Understand the job tree.

A job tree allows a set number of subcontracting levels below the job. When the tree reaches it, Staffing shows Subcontracting limit reached and you cannot assign another company.

If no workers are assigned, contact the subcontractor’s admin. Only that company can assign its workers.
