Multiple businesses or franchise logins

[Note - this feature is only available in Pro subscription - via special request]

If you're looking for a way to manage and run multiple businesses, for example multiple building licenses or if your business is structured in a way that there's a main company with companies below, MyConstruct can handle this.

We do this by simply establishing a 'main' business which holds all of your staff logins, these logins are at the set per user / per month rate for your desired subscription level.

After you have your main business setup, simply logout and create another MyConstruct trial account, set this up with all the details of your second business and repeat as needed. Additional businesses can be priced via support ticket, depending on the scenario we can work out something that works for you.

Once all your businesses are set and ready, you just need to open a support ticket (bottom right corner 'help') and request these businesses be linked. Our support team will mark your main account (with all logins) as the "franchisor" account, this means it's your main login and all users within this business will be able to "switch" to the businesses below "franchisees". This terminology is used as the feature was designed to work for franchise builders but works great for all scenarios that require multiple businesses.

If a user is required to be restricted to one business then you can create the account within the business once you "switch" to it (below the main business). This means that user logins can switch to businesses that are 'below' the business they are created in.

For example: You may have a structure that has Company A (plumbing) and Company B (carpentry) the owner of the company would exist in Company A and be able to switch between the two, you may then have a supervisor in Company A that can also switch between the two companies. Though if you create a user that is a Carpenter in Company B, they will not be able to switch to the Company A as it's "above" Company B. Users can switch to companies below the company they're created in.

Added benefits:

Businesses can share 'Types of Work' - this allows the businesses below the main account to use these types of work or import and make changes to them.

When starting a new estimate you'll be able to select shared types of work from the type of work dropdown options.

Estimate templates can also be shared, this helps speed up estimating plus any quantities used in the templates will also bring across their related supplier automatically and any custom measurements etc.

Checklists can be shared and managed from the main business login.

Tasks and checklist items can be assigned to users across the shared business 'group'.

The manage checklist area has a new tab appear that allows control over all business tasks and checklists, including assigning and approving tasks etc.

Each business can be linked to it's own Xero account by simply switching between each business and connecting them one by one to their associated Xero business (within your Xero account).
