Team & Reports

Shipmark is built for collaboration from day one. This page covers bringing teammates in, the visibility a manager gets, generating reports, and how notifications keep everyone current.

Keeping everyone in the loop

Invite teammates

Member, Manager, or Admin.

Notifications fire in real time

Task assignments, comments, client submissions.

Manager reviews team activity

Filtered by project, member, or date.

Generate a report

For a client, or your own records.

Inviting Your Team

No team-size limit on either plan — invite everyone who needs access.

Why it exists

Shipmark is designed for team collaboration, not solo use with occasional guests — pricing scales on things like projects and clients, never on headcount.

When to use it

As soon as you have a second person doing work worth logging.

  1. 1

    Go to Team Settings

    From your account menu.

  2. 2

    Send an invitation

    Enter an email and choose a role: Member, Manager, or Admin.

  3. 3

    They accept and land in your workspace

    Same sign-in options as anyone else — password, Google, or email code.

Pro Tip

Need someone to see only one project, not the whole workspace? Use a project-scoped invite instead of a full workspace invite.

Team Member Roles

Three roles, each with a clear, fixed set of permissions.

Why it exists

A flat "everyone can do everything" model breaks down once a team has more than a couple of people — roles keep responsibility clear.

When to use it

Set at invite time, adjustable later by an Admin.

Pro Tip

Member: logs and manages their own work, sees team activity.

Pro Tip

Manager: everything a Member can do, plus team dashboards, reviewing client scope requests, and reports across the whole team.

Pro Tip

Admin: everything a Manager can do, plus team management, billing, and workspace settings.

Manager Dashboard

See exactly what your team did today — no status meeting required.

Why it exists

The whole point of daily logging is that a manager never has to ask 'what did you work on'. The dashboard is where that visibility actually shows up.

When to use it

Any time you'd otherwise be asking around for a status update.

  1. 1

    Open the team dashboard

    Available to Manager and Admin roles.

  2. 2

    Filter

    By project, team member, or date range.

  3. 3

    Spot blockers immediately

    Logged blockers surface without anyone having to flag them separately.

Pro Tip

This is the same underlying activity data every team member already sees for their own work — nothing here is hidden surveillance, just a wider view.

Reports

Work-type, project, and member breakdowns for any date range.

Why it exists

A dashboard shows what's happening now; a report is what you hand to a client or keep for your own records after the fact.

When to use it

End of week, end of month, or whenever you need a summary rather than a live view.

  1. 1

    Open Reports

    Open to every workspace member, scoped to their own logs by default.

  2. 2

    Pick a date range

    Any range you need.

  3. 3

    Managers and Admins see more

    A full team breakdown by member, on top of the same report.

Pro Tip

Reports is deliberately open to everyone, not manager-only — everyone can already see their own logged work, this just summarizes it.

Notifications

Know the moment something needs you, without refreshing anything.

Why it exists

Task assignments, client submissions, and comments are only useful if you see them promptly — notifications remove the need to keep checking manually.

When to use it

Always on in the background — this is a passive feature, nothing to set up.

  1. 1

    Watch the bell icon

    A badge shows your unread count in the top bar.

  2. 2

    Click through

    Jumps straight to whatever triggered it — a task, a comment, a client submission.

  3. 3

    Mark as read

    Individually, or all at once.

Pro Tip

Covers task assignments and comments, client requirement submissions and reviews, reminders coming due, team invites, and blocker reports.

Best practices

  • Give Manager access to whoever actually reviews client scope requests day-to-day, not just whoever is most senior.
  • Check the Manager Dashboard's blocker view before a status meeting, not during one — it usually removes the need for the meeting at all.
  • Use project-scoped invites for short-term collaborators instead of full workspace access.

Frequently asked questions

Yes — team activity visibility is part of the point of Shipmark, not restricted to managers. Manager and Admin additionally get dashboards, breakdowns, and scope-review responsibilities on top of that.
No — team size is unlimited on both the Free and Pro plans. Pro removes limits on things like projects, clients, and checklist steps, not headcount.
